"Maybe the true purpose of my life is for my body, my sensations and my thoughts to become writing, in other words, something intelligible and universal, causing my existence to merge into the lives and heads of other people." "In 1963, Annie Ernaux, twenty-three and single, became pregnant. Forty years later, using her journals of the day, she retraces her experience of the ensuing months. Happening is perhaps Ernaux's most risk-taking and emotionally raw journey yet."--BOOK JACKET.
unbelievably breaking- feels very wrong to rate -- just simply overwhelmed (and excited to talk in person about this because a review feels like the wrong space)
