Shame arises in her like a plague: Understanding that her pregnancy will mark her and her family as social failures, she knows she cannot keep that child. This is the story, written forty years later, of a trauma Ernaux never overcame. In a France where abortion was illegal, she attempted, in vain, to self-administer the abortion with a knitting needle. Fearful and desperate, she finally located an abortionist, and ends up in a hospitalemergency ward where she nearly dies. In Happening, Ernaux sifts through her memories and her journal entries dating from those days. Clearly, cleanly, she gleans the meanings of her experience\"--\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seven Stories Press,U.S.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45557956771919,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":523.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9781609809485","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
