"The past doesn't feed you. I will leave as I came. Intact, blaming those who tortured me for my faults. I would have liked to be born a statue; I am a slug beneath my own dung." An obsessive and revealing self-portrait of a remarkable woman humiliated by the circumstances of her birth and her physical appearance. When it was first published, 'la bastarda' drew comparisons between Violette Leduc and Jean Genet for the frank description of her sexual escapades and 'immoral' behavior. A confessional work containing portraits of several famous French authors, this book is more than a sparkling memoir. Leduc's brilliant writing style and her attention to language transform this autobiography into a work of art.
