The devastating and powerful memoir from a French publisher who was
abused by a famous writer from the age of thirteen 'Dazzling' New
York Times 'A gut-punch of a memoir with prose that cuts like a
knife' Kate Elizabeth Russell, author of My Dark Vanessa Thirty
years ago, Vanessa Springora was the teenage muse of one of
France's most celebrated writers, a footnote in the narrative of an
influential man. At the end of 2019, as women around the world
began to speak out, Springora, now in her forties and the director
of one of France's leading publishing houses, decided to reclaim
her own story. Consent recalls her stolen adolescence. Devastating
in its honesty, Springora's painstaking memoir lays bare the
cultural attitudes and circumstances that made it possible for a
fourteen-year-old girl to become involved with a fifty-year-old
man.
