The Use of Photography — Annie Ernaux & Marc Marie. Published by Seven Stories Press.
Profound, sexy, and heart-breaking, The Use of Photography recounts a passionate affair between the writers Annie Ernaux and Marc Marie. Punctuated by photos of clothes cast to the floor in various places, the passages of writing get to the undertow of desire, love, death, and existence itself, somehow. Amazing.
