I tried everything.Édouard Louis longs for a life beyond the poverty, discrimination, and violence in his working-class hometownso he sets out for school in Amiens, and, later, university in Paris.

He reads incessantly; he dines with aristocrats; he spends nights with millionaires and drug-dealers alike. Everything he does is motivated by a single obsession: to become someone else. At once harrowing and profound, Change is not just a personal odyssey, a story of dreams and of "the beautiful violence of being torn away, but a vividly rendered portrait of a society divided by class, power, and inequality.
