Sich Verlieren by Annie Ernaux

A spare, unflinching first-person memoir that recounts an intense clandestine affair and how longing, secrecy and physical desire temporarily dissolve the narrator’s ordinary life and sense of self; the prose examines the tension between the immediacy of erotic experience and the later act of remembering, exploring shame, anonymity and the ways desire reshapes identity and memory.
