A revelation KATY HESSEL
Brilliant OBSERVER

Over one night, alone in the Punta della Dogana Museum in Venice, Leïla Slimani grapples with the self as it is revealed in solitude. In a place of old and new, she confronts her past and her present, through her life as a Moroccan woman, as a writer, and as a daughter. Surrounded by art, she explores what it means to behold and clasp beauty; enveloped by night, she confronts the meaning of life and death.

Translated from the French by Sam Taylor

Leïla Slimani is the first Moroccan woman to win France s most prestigious literary prize, the Prix Goncourt, which she won for Lullaby. A journalist and frequent commentator on women s and human rights, she is French president Emmanuel Macron s personal representative for the promotion of the French language and culture. Born in Rabat, Morocco, in 1981, she lives in Lisbon.
