Editor's Take:
Édouard Louis writes about growing up gay and poor in a village in northern France. His first novel caused a sensation and was translated into many languages. It described violence, shame and escape with unusual frankness. Later books turned to his father, his mother and an assault he survived. He uses personal stories to make political arguments about class. He has become a leading left-wing intellectual in France. Several of his books have been turned into acclaimed stage productions.
