They are powerful (one is a disciplinarian teacher). They are mysterious (one haunts a house like a ghost). They are seductive (one marries her best friend's father). And they are unbearably personal (one is the author's own mother).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey are all aspects of their creator: Marie NDiaye, an author celebrated worldwide as one of France's leading writers. Here, in her own skewed take on the memoir, NDiaye combs through all the menacing, beguiling, and revelatory memories submerged beneath the consciousness of a singular literary talent. Mysterious, honest, and unabashedly innovative, NDiaye's self-portrait forces us all to ask questions--about what we repress, how we discover those things, and how those obsessions become us.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Two Lines Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45086255710359,"sku":"9781931883399","price":540.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781931883399.webp?v=1767638915","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/self-portrait-in-green-9781931883399","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
