In 1963, Annie Ernaux, 23 and unattached, realizes she is pregnant. Shame arises in her like a plague: understanding that her pregnancy will mark her and her family as social failures, she knows she cannot keep that child. This is the story, written forty years later, of a trauma Ernaux never overcame. In a France where abortion was illegal, she attempted, in vain, to self-administer the abortion with a knitting needle. Fearful and desperate, she finally located an abortionist, and ends up in a hospital emergency ward where she nearly dies. In Happening, Ernaux sifts through her memories and her journal entries dating from those days. Clearly, cleanly, she gleans the meanings of her experience.

Born in 1940, Annie Ernaux grew up in Normandy, studied at Rouen University, and later taught at secondary school. From 1977 to 2000, she was a professor at the Centre National d'Enseignement par Correspondance. Her books, in particular A Man's Place and A Woman's Story, have become contemporary classics in France. The Years won the Prix Renaudot in France in 2008 and the Premio Strega in Italy in 2016. In 2017, Annie Ernaux was awarded the Marguerite Yourcenar Prize for her life's work.
Tanya Leslie was the first translator of Annie Ernaux into English and translated a number of her works, including A Woman's Story (1991), A Man s Place (1992), Simple Passion (1993), Shame (1998), I Remain in Darkness (1999), and Happening (2001), all for Seven Stories Press in the US.
比起电影的叙述，纯文本多了Annie在写作时的二次呈现。“these material traces may be more apt to convey reality than the subjective approach provided by memory or writing.”除去不可靠的回忆，曾经记录在本子上的人名、地址成为了更有力的“证据”。 读者在书页之外，...

手术刀式的写法非常压抑。很神奇的是人的心理好像确实有补偿作用：越是写得满的、用力强烈的文字，我们的感受就越容易被削弱；而越是留白多的、克制平和的文字，感受就越容易被放大。安妮的文字肯定是后者。让我惊叹的除了文字的力度，还有她的时间感与空间感的营造：往往是前后两句或者前后两段之间通过时间的跨越和空间的转场起到了极强地烘托和渲染作用。其实是非常朴素平实的写法，但是它可以非常动人。可以让我这种文学素养贫... 手术刀式的写法非常压抑。很神奇的是人的心理好像确实有补偿作用：越是写得满的、用力强烈的文字，我们的感受就越容易被削弱；而越是留白多的、克制平和的文字，感受就越容易被放大。安妮的文字肯定是后者。让我惊叹的除了文字的力度，还有她的时间感与空间感的营造：往往是前后两句或者前后两段之间通过时间的跨越和空间的转场起到了极强地烘托和渲染作用。其实是非常朴素平实的写法，但是它可以非常动人。可以让我这种文学素养贫瘠的读者都感受到她大道至简的力量。当然就主题而言，就更是好得不得了，女性是一种情绪，一种感受，一种处境。 (展开)

I was amazed by the night Annie was sent to hospital...I love the ending part of self reflection.

购于外文书店。法国版四月三周两天，然而非常私密和细节化，堕胎场景是震撼级别的写实。在annie ernaux的回忆中，在她极度痛苦的时候，几乎是一个完全孤立无援的状态…四月三周两天的女主还有个自私自利的闺蜜…

能感受到安妮为什么反对「autofiction」这种说法；流产那一段十分露骨…让我有点想看电影了；不过个人更喜欢她的其他作品；
