Happening - WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE

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 1963, Annie Ernaux, in varsta de 23 de ani si neatasata, isi da seama ca este insarcinata. Rusinea apare in ea ca o ciuma: intelegand ca sarcina ei o va marca pe ea si familia ei drept esecuri sociale, stie ca nu poate pastra acel copil.
