Virginie Linhart: “Writing does not repair but helps to get through”. In the remarkable A Dirty Affair, Linhart returns to the lawsuit brought against her by her mother and her ex-partner in order to have her previous work, The Maternal Effect, published in 2020 banned.
Linhart recounted her youth and her first pregnancy, but also three and even four generations of women – her grandmothers, her mother, herself, and her daughter Lune, born in tragic circumstances.
