Née en 1959, lââ¯autrice retrace depuis sa naissance 20 ans dââ¯histoire du prolétariat, de lââ¯engagement communiste, de lââ¯empreinte catholique, de lââ¯immigration en Europe et en Afrique du Nord, de la France des taudis et des banlieues. Ce parcours marqué par le féminisme et la lutte contre le patriarcat, lââ¯ascension et lââ¯intégration sociales, sââ¯inscrit dans les débats intellectuels de lââ¯Ã©poque sur le colonialisme, le racisme, le fascisme, le capitalisme, notamment portés par Boris Vian, Jean-Paul Sartre et Simone de Beauvoir, dont elle revendique la filiation.
Born in 1959, the author tells the story of her first twenty years, including her working-class background, Communist commitments, Catholic influences, and immigration from Europe and North Africa to French slums and the banlieue. This journey, which is marked by feminism and the struggle against patriarchy, as well as the struggle for upward mobility and assimilation, is set against the backdrop of the intellectual debates of the time on colonialism, racism, fascism, and capitalism, especially those taken up by Boris Vian, Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, whom the protagonist regards as an ancestor of sorts.
