Translation of: Je ne suis pas sortie de ma nuit.

""I Remain in Darkness" is an extraordinary testament to a grown daughter's attachment to her mother, and both women's strength and resiliency. It recounts Ernaux's efforts first to help her mother recover from Alzheimer's disease, and then, when that proves futile, to bear witness to the older woman's gradual decline and to her own experience as a daughter losing a beloved parent. "I Remain in Darkness" surges with raw emotional power and Ernaux's sublime ability to use language to apprehend her own life's particular music."--Publisher.
