About Anne Pauly
Anne Pauly is a writer working and living in Paris. Her first book, Avant que j’oublie, is a tragi-comic story of mourning death and “vengeful social mobility.” It was awarded the 2020 Prix du Livre Inter and Prix Robert Walser after shortlisting for the Prix Femina, Prix Wepler, and Prix Goncourt. Pauly has since written short stories for several reviews and scripted a televised fiction series and a play for the Centre Dramatique National Besançon Franche-Comté. She is currently finishing a second novel, while working on a play for the Théâtre du Nord along with seven other writers, including Virginie Despentes, Paul B. Preciado, and Julien Delmaire.
