Simple Passion

By Annie Ernaux and Tanya Leslie

A spare, intimate account of desire and obsession, tracing the emotional and physical intensity of a two-year relationship between an unnamed woman and a married foreigner. As her passion consumes her life, ordinary events, people, and experiences become meaningful only in relation to the man she longs for.

With her characteristic precision and unsentimental style, Ernaux examines the vulnerability and indignities of living entirely for another person. Blurring the boundaries between memory, confession, and fiction, Simple Passion offers a deeply honest portrait of obsession and the difficult clarity that can emerge in its aftermath.
