Description
Translated by Alison L. Strayer into English for the first time,The Use of Photographyis an extraordinary meditation on eroticism, photography and writing, a major work by the 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate. The Use of Photographyrecounts a passionate love affair between Annie Ernaux and the journalist and author Marc Marie, after the two met in January 2003. Ernaux had been receiving intensive chemo for breast cancer during the prior three months, and had lost all her hair from the treatments. At the end of January she had surgery, followed by radiation therapy. The affair took place in different locations and Ernaux describes how, shortly after it began, she found herself entranced each morning by the sight of clothes strewn about, chairs out of place and the remains of their last meal of the evening still on the table – and how painful it felt to put things back in order afterwards. She went and got her camera, and began to take photographs of the scenes of disarray. When she told Marc Marie what she had done, he said he had felt the same desire. Translated by Alison L. Strayer into English for the first time,The Use of Photographyis an extraordinary meditation on eroticism, photography and writing, a major work by the 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate. | ASIN : 1804271144 | ISBN13 : 9781804271148.0 | ISBN-13 : 978-1804271148
