History of violence / Édouard Louis ; translated from the French by Lorin Stein. by Louis, Édouard, author. New York : Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2018. Subjects Louis, Édouard -- Fiction.   Rape -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780374170592 (hardcover) : 0374170592 (hardcover) : Description:  212 pages ; 20 cm Edition:  First American edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  " ... On Christmas Eve 2012, in Paris, the novelist Édouard Louis was raped and almost murdered by a man he had just met. This act of violence left Louis shattered; its aftermath made him a stranger to himself and sent him back to the village, the family, and the past he had sworn to leave behind. A bestseller in France; challenged and vindicated in the courts; History of Violence is a short nonfiction novel in the tradition of Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, but with the victim as its subject. Moving seamlessly and hypnotically between past and present, between Louis's voice and the voice of an imagined narrator, History of Violence has the exactness of a police report and the searching, unflinching curiosity of memoir at its best. It records not only the casual racism and homophobia of French society but also their subtle effects on lovers, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. It represents a great step forward for a young writer whose acuity, skill, and depth are unmatched by any novelist of his generation, in French or English."--Amazon.com.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Louis Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Fiction Louis Checked out 05/15/2024 Add Copy to MyList
