Simple Passion
In her spare, stark style Annie Ernaux documents the desires and
indignities of a human heart ensnared in an all-consuming passion. Blurring the
line between fact and fiction, an un-named narrator attempts to plot the
emotional and physical course of her two-year relationship with a married
foreigner where every word, event, and person either provides a connection with
her beloved or is subject to her cold indifference.
