Description

Getting Lost is Annie Ernaux's diary from 1989, a year and a half spent in secret love affair with a married man. This unfiltered account offers an intimate look at the author's life, where desire and despair are intertwined.

Ernaux's writing is spare and vulnerable, stripped of artifice as she navigates her daily routine, awaiting her lover's next call. Her prose is a haunting record of a woman struggling to find meaning in her life, outside of the moments of intense desire that define their relationship.

Translated by Alison L. Strayer for the first time, Getting Lost provides a unique glimpse into Ernaux's inner world, one that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
