Annie Ernaux in conversation with Sally Rooney, Charleston Festival published on

Annie Ernaux will be in conversation with Sally Rooney at the Charleston Festival on 29 May 2023.

‘In a rare visit to the UK, iconic French author Annie Ernaux, winner of the 2022 Nobel Prize for Literature, joins us for a very special afternoon looking back on a career spanning over five decades.

One of the greatest authors writing today, Ernaux famously looks to her own life in her books, writing in her distinctively clean and brutally honest style. In conversation with Sally Rooney, bestselling author of ‘Normal People’, she reflects on a life writing about life and her own working-class upbringing.’

In partnership with the Institut Français.
