"No to'Represent Reality'but to Pursue Reality":An Interview with Annie Ernaux
Annie Ernaux,the 2022 Nobel Prize laureate in Literature,has consistently em-phasized her"non-fiction"writing style.She persistently delves into life experiences in her writings,striving to adhere closely to reality.Drawing from her own self as well as personal and collective memories,her works uncover and reflect upon various aspects of reality.For Ernaux,realism entails the pursuit of truth,the innovation of new language and literary styles,and the shaping of new literary images,through which she articulates a strong societal en-gagement and concern for reality,particularly within the domains of class and gender.
