WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE: Celebrate Annie Ernaux with this stunning collection of interviews, critical analyses, and twenty-four previously unpublished writings offering insight into her life, writing style, thoughts, and influence.

Magisterial in scope and size, Writing, the Other Life was compiled and edited by Pierre-Louis Fort and was first published in France by Éditions de L'Herne in 2022, a few months before Annie Ernaux received the Nobel Prize in Literature. The anthology includes twenty-four previously unpublished Ernaux pieces, as well as literary criticism, essays, interviews, and diary entries, as well as letters from Simone de Beauvoir.

Never before published in English, this extensive collection is the fruit of collaboration between six celebrated translators and a groundbreaking work of scholarship and rumination.
