Özet

Annie Ernaux, considered one of the most famous women writers of XXI century, expressed the common anxiety of her age and her past by writing Les Annees. She did not only aim to describe her life, but also to outline the history of the French society to which she belongs. When she came into the world in 1940, the world was on the brink of the Second World War. Being raised in this chaotic atmosphere, she learned a lot of things from her society, her family and her environment. Annie Ernaux discovered the world as a young girl, a mother, a wife and a grandmother. Her social and family experiences have greatly matured her and she started writing her thoughts. Her memories were part of her autobiographical writings. In Les Annees, Annie Ernaux took advantage of all her personal and social experiences with different means. She tried to make connections between the story of her life and that of society. She gave importance to social life rather than her own life in Les Annees. She developed her own writing techniques using the family and personal photos, a film, a video, advertising brands, songs, a painting, newspaper notes as well as sociological and historical events in her book. So she created a new form of autobiography: impersonal autobiography.
