I Remain in Darkness – WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE

E-book


A powerful meditation on ageing and familial love, I Remain in Darkness recounts Annie Ernaux's attempts to help her mother recover from Alzheimer's disease, and then, when that proves futile, to bear witness to the older woman's gradual decline and her own experience as a daughter losing a beloved parent. Haunting and devastatingly poignant, I Remain in Darkness showcases Ernaux's unique talent for evoking life's darkest and most bewildering episodes.

I would give it a hundred stars if I could! It is extremely relatable to my own grief of losing my child…! I am still unable to write about him! I remain in darkness shook me to my core…!
