我不想知道的事：论女性写作（女性成长三部曲1）
(uk) Deborah Levy
Part One of Deborah Levy's Trilogy on Women's Growth: On Women's Writing. The winner of the 2020 French Femina Foreign Literature Prize. How do we face things we cannot bear and things we don't want to know? --Writing, every writing is an attempt to create a better world. Levy integrates personal history, gender politics, philosophy and literary theory, responding to George Orwell's famous "Why I Write" from a female perspective, discussing writing, love and loss, forming this private, sincere and touching record of personal life. In the book, Levy strives to balance the triple identities of woman, mother, and writer, while describing the real-life experiences that profoundly influenced her novel creation: as a child in South Africa, she lost the ability to speak due to her father's disaster; as a teenager, she lived with construction workers and bus drivers in cheap restaurants in the United Kingdom, and gradually grew into a writer; at the age of fifty, her marriage broke up, and she made an impromptu trip to Mallorca, Spain, to review her previous life in a foreign country.
