Annie Ernaux on The Years 

congratulations Annie Ernaux !! For winning Noble Prize 2022

That interpreter deserves just as much praise as Ernaux!

The Years is one of the best autobiographies which run in parallel with collective memories, both historical but also capturing minute moments people are living through that are meaningful only to them, while history as a whole marches inexorably forward. What a fantastic book, and what a treat to have an interview with the author about it. The interpreter was incredible!

GIGANTE Annie ❤️

We are eager to know about her literature. We know very little of her writings here in Bangladesh.

Thank you for uploading this interview and sharing it with the world, such an amazing book, mesmerizing interview, this is sheer joy

Congratulations Annie Ernaux

Deserves to win the Nobel. Her memoirs are better and less self indulgent than Knausgaard's.... A fan here from the Philippines.

Hooray! I have the gift of Nostradamus!

A becoming of age story?

A translator is often a traitor. The original French version is better. Perhaps because French is more melodious than English. I saw the same with "100 Years of Solitude." The English translation was bad, yet the French version was able to catch the Spanish soul. Probably, because French and Spanish have Latin roots. However, on the whole, I didn't like Ernaux's book. The excerpt in the video is beautiful, but her book is written without souls. I forced myself to keep on reading it hoping I will find the multiple scintillas that explode in other French, Spanish, and English classic books. Since I myself wrote two books, one nearly similar to Ernaux where I mixed my sex biography as a prostitute for one year with my childhood fairy tales, I don't understand all fuss she makes about sex and men. I always felt that my misfortunes were my fault not anybody else faults even the three men who raped me for which I had to extirpate a 3-month fetus with the help of a black alley abortionist with no anesthesia. To me, this woman is a want-to-be bourgeoise crying behind her Woke tendencies. There are many women like this in France: the bourgeoises who rebelled in May 1968 revolution and wrote books. They are responsible for what is happening now. Ernaux's 2022 Nobel Prize has a definitive political agenda. In the end, I thank all men who helped me in my life even the Johns who treated me well.

Bisogna tornare alla Genesi, a prima di adamo ed eva. Bisogna separare Luce dalle tenebre che poi e' anche il luogo destinato ai cani e alle cagne. Per voi prevedo tenebre.
