Thirty is a haunting and introspective novel that follows the life of a woman named Thirty, who is convinced that she will die at the age of thirty. In a dark and obsessive diary, she documents the last year of her life, exploring the themes of female suffering, introspection, and social analysis. Through a prism of ideas, quotes, and poetry, Thirty assembles vignettes from popular culture and literature, flirts with anti-happiness rhetoric, mocks wellness culture, and cements itself in the tradition of 'Bad Girl literature.' The text confronts the pressure to be 'a good girl' and the pressure to be happy, and explores the question of whether Thirty can survive these tropes. Originally published in French as Trente by Éditions du remue-ménage, Thirty is now available in English for the first time, translated by Natalia Hero.
