In 'Life, Old Age and Death of a Village Woman', Didier Eribon narrates the physical and emotional decline of his mother, recalling their shared past and denouncing the deficiencies of the care system. This book is a reflection on social inequalities, the cruelty of aging, and the precariousness in which elderly people from less privileged classes live. Eribon, a sociologist and philosopher, returns to his hometown after his mother's deterioration, using this experience to speak frankly about delicate and urgent issues.
Didier Eribon is a French author and philosopher, and a historian of French intellectual life. He lives in Paris.
