I Remain in Darkness

A powerful meditation on ageing and familial love, I REMAIN IN DARKNESS recounts Annie Ernaux`s attempts to help her mother recover from Alzheimer`s disease, and then, when that proves futile, to bear witness to the older woman`s gradual decline and her own experience as a daughter losing a beloved parent. Haunting and devastatingly poignant, I REMAIN IN DARKNESS showcases Ernaux`s unique talent for evoking life`s darkest and most bewildering episodes.
