Annie Ernaux, 10 years old, learns that she had a sister who died before she was even born. 2011.

To tell the story of this story will be to put an end to the vagueness of life experience, just like when you process a photo film that has been kept in a cupboard for sixty years and has never been printed.'<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-size: 80%;\">It is the photographer Nad\u00e8ge Fagoo who finally processed this intimate photo film, with her own light, her own grammar. A few documentary photos were taken in Yvetot; a long series of others feature two children, embodying the possible faces of this \u201cother girl\u201d. In this configuration, photography which plays equally with the text nourishing it, and which irrigates it in return, consonates, offers its counterpoints, its enigmas, the velvety skin and the faces. \u00bb<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\" class=\"translation-block\"><span style=\"font-size: 80%\"><strong>H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Gestern on <a href=\"https:\/\/autobiosphere.wordpress.com\/2023\/05\/05\/resurrection-annie-ernaux-nadege-fagoo-lautre-fille-lightmotiv-2023-h-gestern\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Autobiosphere<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs x126k92a\">\n<blockquote>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><span style=\"font-size: 80%;\"><em><span style=\"color: #333333;\">\u201cThis book was born from an unexpected encounter.
