«Comment j'ai vidé la maison de mes parents» is Lydia Flem's autobiographical essay, published by Seuil in paperback (160 pages, in French).
After losing her parents, Lydia Flem recounts the process of emptying the family home and the difficulty of getting rid of objects laden with memories. The author reflects on grief, emotional inheritance and the mixed feelings —anger, oppression, remorse and a strange freedom— that accompany this task, and on the memory hidden in everyday things.
This title belongs to the «La Librairie du XXIe siècle» collection and was published on 1 June 2004.
For anyone seeking an intimate, taboo-free account of losing one's parents and the emotional weight of inherited objects.
Belgian writer, psychoanalyst and photographer (born 1952)
