Abstract

"This paper examines the concept of identity and its reconfiguration after experiencing a traumatic event. Anny Duperey’s account of her shock caused by the sudden loss of her parents at the age of eight is the self- narrative analyzed this study. After thirty years of silence, Duprey finally decides to rediscover this “lost” past and “upset” childhood, which allows her, in particular, to reconstruct her injured identity. Therefore, the question that arises is how the author / narrator manages to approach the representation of self during her narrative project, while she is suffering from identity rupture in the aftermath of such a heavy loss."
