"My father tried to
kill my mother one Sunday in June, in the early afternoon," begins
Shame, the probing story of the twelve-year-old girl who will become the
author herself, and the single traumatic memory that will echo and
resonate throughout her life.
With the emotionally rich voice of great
fiction and the diamond-sharp analytical eye of a scientist, Annie
Ernaux provides a powerful reflection on experience and the power of
violent memory to endure through time, to determine the course of a
life.
