And then she is thirty years old, a teacher married to an executive, mother of two infant sons. She looks after their nice apartment, raises her children. And yet, like millions of other women, she has felt her enthusiasm and curiosity, her strength and her happiness, slowly ebb under the weight of her daily routine. The very condition that everyone around her seems to consider normal and admirable for a woman is killing her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile each of Ernaux's books contain an autobiographical element, \u003ci\u003eA Frozen Woman\u003c\/i\u003e, one of Ernaux's early works, concentrates the spotlight piercingly on Annie herself. Mixing affection, rage and bitterness, \u003ci\u003eA Frozen Woman\u003c\/i\u003e shows us Ernaux's developing art when she still relied on traditional narrative, before the shortened form emerged that has since become her trademark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Seven Stories Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/08\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781888363388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.23h x 5.56w x 0.54d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/13\/1997 pg. 32\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Annie Ernaux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42520664506549,"sku":"9781888363388","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_457196b2-de87-4cc1-b9ea-616b0de831d6.jpg?v=1669131082","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/a-frozen-woman-9781888363388","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
