Ordinary passion. Shame.

Two novels by Nobel Prize winner Annie Ernaux are contained under one cover.

"Ordinary Passion" is an autobiographical novel about an obsession with a man that leads a woman to neglect not only the world but also her own life. But what is such a passion really: a curse or a luxury?

"Shame" is a recollection, brought to life on paper, of the mores of post-war Normandy, a Catholic school, and the searing sense of shame for one's origins and surroundings, which is felt more than ever in childhood.
