Synopsis of L'evento
En octubre de 1963, una estudiante de veintitrés años se ve obligada a buscar métodos clandestinos para interrumpir un embarazo. En Francia, el aborto aún es ilegal y la palabra misma se considera impronunciable. 'L'evento' relata los días y las etapas de una experiencia humana total: la búsqueda de soluciones, la apatía desesperada, las ambigüedades de los médicos, la fascinación de los hombres, la cercanía de algunas compañeras de curso y el encuentro con la comadrona, hasta el sentimiento de orgullo por haber superado una presencia deslumbrante de vida y muerte. Ernaux interroga la memoria como herramienta de conocimiento de lo real. De la cronología de un acontecimiento transformador surge una voz precisa e irrefutable que abre un espacio literario de testimonio para generaciones de mujeres excluidas de la Historia.
