Woman's Story | 
pick4/5
In this short book (90 pages), Annie Ernaux recounts the life of her mother, a woman with ambition, who like her daughter, changed social status (one of the major theme of Annie Ernaux).
Ernaux's writing is very factual, bare, distanced. Some parts read like photographs, a description of a short moment in life.
Another theme: mother-daughter relationship in this context of socio-economical growth.
