Exteriors

By: Annie Ernaux, Tanya Leslie

Narrated by: Tavia Gilbert

In Exteriors, Annie Ernaux concentrates not on the essential details of a relationship with a family member or lover as before but on ephemeral encounters within the larger circle of one's environment and the hundreds of strangers who inhabit it. Here, she captures the feeling of contemporary living on the outskirts of a great city: tortured, chaotic, lyrical, and powerfully alive. Exteriors is, in many ways, the most ecstatic of Ernaux's books, the first in which she appears largely free of the haunting personal relationships she has written about so powerfully elsewhere, the first in which she is able to leave her past behind.

A great book

A fantastic book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this book to be relatable and highly intelligent. I further found great relation with the protagonist and I further highly recommend this book.
