Summary

Juni 1952, Annie ist 12 Jahre alt. Eines Sonntagnachmittags muss sie miterleben, wie der Vater versucht die Mutter umzubringen. Nach kurzer Zeit beruhigt sich der Vater, und Annie verdrängt den Vorfall. Bis sie nahezu ein halbes Jahrhundert später auf ein altes Foto stößt, das eine Flut von Erinnerungen auslöst. Je tiefer Annie Ernaux in dieses entscheidende Jahr eintaucht, umso deutlicher wird ihr die Spannung, in der die Eltern lebten, zwischen dem Wunsch nach sozialem Aufstieg und dem demütigenden Rückfall in die alten Verhältnisse. In Die Scham seziert sie dieses beharrliche Gefühl der eigenen Unwürdigkeit.
