Violette Leduc & Violette Leduc 
Asphyxia [EPUB ebook] 

Ajutor

An extraordinary tale of a stifled childhood and an unrelenting love of life from the protégée of Simone de Beauvoir.

‘Indisputably a brilliant writer’ Evening Standard 

In a small French town, a young girl grows up under the hard blue gaze of a mother who will not hold her hand. Her only comfort lies in the warmth of her ill grandmother. 

Yet the world around her is humming with curiosity. From the obsessive Madame Barbaroux and her endless spring cleaning, to the homeless Monsieur Dezaille and his beloved collection of saucepans, Leduc exposes the eccentricities of provincial life with unflinching candour and striking beauty.

Despre autor

Violette Leduc was born in Arras, France, in 1907, the illegitimate daughter of a serving girl who would later blame Violette for her personal misfortunes. She was sent to boarding school, from which she was eventually expelled after her affairs with a female pupil and a tutor were discovered. Her 1964 memoir La Bâtarde, a frank depiction of lesbianism, poverty and loneliness, sold over 150, 000 copies and nearly won the Prix Goncourt. Leduc died in 1972.
