Questo romanzo della poetessa e scrittrice Annie Vivanti è quasi un’autobiografia , tanto la sua vita personale si è intrecciata con la storia di queste due donne: Nancy, poetessa prodigio, e Anne-marie, sua figlia, violinista prodigio. Chi ha del Genio, dentro di sé, dice la scrittrice, può divenire un Divoratore di coloro che gli stanno accanto, ch divengono, dunque, dei Divorati. Un genio che, come un pifferaio magico, ti costringe a seguirlo, incantata dalla sua musica, fino a dentro una montagna, fuori dalla vita.

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 unnamed 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. With courage and exactitude, she seeks the truth behind an existence lived entirely for someone else, and, in the pieces of its aftermath, she is able to find it.

Local dialect, words of the time, slogans, brands, and names for ever-proliferating objects are given a voice here. The voice we recognize as the author's continually dissolves and re-emerges.

Nach über 55 Jahren taucht Annie Ernaux ein in das Jahr 1958. Den Sommer verbringt sie in einem Feriencamp in der Normandie. Gemeinsam mit anderen Betreuern feiert sie Partys und genießt ihre Jugend. Und sie verbringt ihre erste Nacht mit einem Mann, eine erste sexuelle Erfahrung, die sie voller Scham mit in spätere Jahre trägt - und die sie fortan versucht zu vergessen. Annie Ernaux wirft einen Blick zurück auf das Mädchen, das sie einmal war. Doch sie schreibt auch über die Natur des Begehrens, über die Rolle der Frau und das Vergehen der Zeit.

This is Annie Ernaux’s account of her passionate love affair with A., a man some thirty years younger, when she was in her fifties. The relationship pulls her back to memories of her own youth and, at the same time, leaves her feeling ageless, outside of time—together with a sense that she is living her life backwards. Amidst talk of having a child together, she feels time running its course and menopause approaching. The Young Man recalls Ernaux as the “scandalous girl” she once was but is composed with the mastery and the self-assurance she has achieved across decades of writing.
