Édouard Louis's bracing and honest memoir of his mother's liberation--a poetic, tender, joyous account (The Guardian).

Late one night, Édouard Louis got a call from his forty-five-year-old mother: I did it. I left your father. Suddenly, she was free.

A Woman's Battles and Transformations is the searing and sympathetic story of one woman's escape: of mothers and sons, of history and heartbreak, of politics and power. It reckons with the cruel systems that govern our lives--and with the possibility of escape. Sharp, short, and fine as a needle, it is a necessary addition to the work of Édouard Louis, one of France's most widely read and internationally successful novelists (The New York Times Magazine).
