Long-listed for the National Book Critics Circle (NBCC) Barrios Book in Translation PrizeEdouard Louis's bracing and honest memoir of his mother's liberation-a "poetic, tender, joyous" account (The Guardian).Late one night, Edouard Louis got a call from his forty-five-year-old mother: "I did it. I left your father." Suddenly, she was free.A Woman's Battles and Transformations is the searing and sympathetic story of one woman's escape: of mothers and sons, of history and heartbreak, of politics and power. It reckons with the cruel systems that govern our lives-and with the possibility of escape. Sharp, short, and fine as a needle, it is a necessary addition to the work of Edouard Louis, "one of France's most widely read and internationally successful novelists" (The New York Times Magazine).
