�douard Louis is one of the most important literary voices of his generation' Guardian One day, �douard Louis finds a photograph of his mother from twenty years ago: a happy young woman, full of hopes and dreams. But growing up, �douard only knew his mother's sadness - what happened in those years since the photo was taken? Then, at the age of forty-five, �douard's mother frees herself from this life of oppression, to start a new one in Paris.
