Sean’s Notes & Highlights

Simple Passion by Annie Ernaux

1 highlight

When I was a child, luxury was fur coats, evening dresses, and villas by the sea. Later on, I thought it meant leading the life of an intellectual. Now I feel that it is also being able to live out a passion for a man or a woman.
