About this listen
'Brilliant' OBSERVER
Over one night, alone in the Punta della Dogana Museum in Venice, Leïla Slimani grapples with the self as it is revealed in solitude. In a place of old and new, she confronts her past and her present, through her life as a Moroccan woman, as a writer, and as a daughter. Surrounded by art, she explores what it means to behold and clasp beauty; enveloped by night, she confronts the meaning of life and death.
Translated from the French by Sam Taylor©2023 Leïla Slimani (P)2023 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
