Description
Do What They Say Or Else is Annie Ernaux's second novel, originally published in 1977. Set in France, it tells the story of a young girl's transition from middle school to high school.
The novel follows Anne, narrated in a stream-of-consciousness style, as she navigates her relationships with boys and her parents. As she grows into a more mature character, she becomes increasingly conflicted about her place within her family and the world around her.
Ernaux's vivid portrayal of adolescent life captures the complexity and uncertainty of this pivotal stage in Anne's development, offering a nuanced exploration of identity, education, and belonging.
