Annie Ernaux's father died exactly two months after she passed her practical examination for a teaching certificate. Barely educated and valued since childhood strictly for his labour Ernaux's father had grown into a hard practical man who showed his family little affection. Narrating his slow ascent towards material comfort Ernaux's cold observation reveals the shame that haunted her father throughout his life. She observes the importance he attributed to manners and language that came so unnaturally to him as he struggled to provide for his family in rural France.
