The first of its kind, Annie Ernaux beyond Words: Images and Scenes not only offers fresh perspectives on photographic images in the Nobel Prize winner’s work but also presents innovative insights into its adaptations on screen (L’Événement, Simple Passion, The Years) and on stage (A Girl’s Story and Happening) in France, Germany, and Italy, as well as a foray into David Ernaux-Briot’s The Super 8 Years. The volume offers contributions in a vast array of disciplines, is written by an equally diverse cohort of academics, and features performance artists, a writer, and a photographer from Western Europe, Asia and the United States.
