Man's Place – WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE

Barely educated and valued since childhood strictly for his labour, Ernaux’s father had grown into a hard, practical man who showed his family little affection. Narrating his slow ascent towards material comfort, Ernaux’s cold observation in A Man’s Place reveals the shame that haunted her father throughout his life.

Abia educat si apreciat din copilarie strict pentru munca sa, tatal lui Ernaux a devenit un barbat dur si practic, care a aratat familiei sale putina afectiune. Povestind ascensiunea lui lenta catre confortul material, observatia rece a lui Ernaux din A Man's Place dezvaluie rusinea care l-a bantuit pe tatal ei de-a lungul vietii.
