Description
Annie Ernaux's Happening is a deeply personal and unflinching account of her experience with an unwanted pregnancy in 1960s France. At just 23, Ernaux faced a traumatic situation that would have far-reaching consequences for her life. In the years leading up to this event, Ernaux had begun to question the societal norms that governed her life. Her decision to end her pregnancy was motivated by shame and fear of being ostracized by her family and community. The process she underwent was fraught with danger and desperation, ultimately taking a toll on her physical and emotional well-being. Ernaux's account is one of stark honesty and clarity, as she sifts through her memories and journal entries to make sense of this pivotal moment in her life.
