«Journal du dehors» is the narrative work by Annie Ernaux, published by Folio in paperback (112 pages, in French).
Between 1985 and 1992, Annie Ernaux transcribed scenes and words captured in places of passage such as the RER, hypermarkets and the shopping centre of the Ville Nouvelle where she lives. The book brings together these notes to retain something of the era and of the people one crosses only once, whose existence cuts through us and stirs unease, anger or pain.
Originally published in 1995, this title is part of the Folio collection from Gallimard. The edition corresponds to number 2693 in that series.
It is suitable reading for those familiar with Annie Ernaux's work and for readers of contemporary French literature in its original language.
Annie Thérèse Blanche Ernaux is a French writer who was awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature "for the courage and clinical acuity with which she uncovers the roots, estrangements, and collective restraints of personal memory". Her literary work, mostly autobiographical, maintains close links with sociology.
