Anne Roiphe Livres
Anne Roiphe est une écrivaine célébrée pour son engagement indéfectible envers la pensée indépendante, refusant d'adhérer à quelque ligne de parti que ce soit, féministe ou autre. Sa carrière prolifique a exploré le paysage complexe de la vie moderne, se penchant souvent sur les expériences nuancées des femmes, de la maternité et de l'identité. La voix distinctive de Roiphe offre aux lecteurs une perspective aiguë, souvent contradictoire, mais toujours captivante, sur les changements sociaux. Son œuvre défie constamment la pensée conventionnelle, présentant un examen profondément personnel et intellectuellement rigoureux de la condition humaine.
Set against the backdrop of 1950s Park Avenue, the memoir explores Anne Roiphe's journey from a privileged adolescence steeped in societal expectations to a quest for personal freedom and artistic expression. Rejecting the conventional role of women, she found inspiration in literary giants while mingling with notable figures of the time. After a divorce at twenty-seven, she embraced her independence and began writing, recounting her candid experiences of self-discovery and the path to redemption with remarkable honesty.
From Anne Roiphe, the critically acclaimed author of Fruitful, comes the New York Times bestselling Epilogue, a beautiful memoir about death, life, and widowhood. Roiphe explores what happened when, at age 70, she lost her husband of 40 years. Moving between heartbreaking memories of her marriage and the pressing needs of a new day-to-day routine, Epilogue takes readers on her journey into the unknown world of life after love.
