W, or the Memory of Childhood (French: W ou le souvenir d'enfance) is a semi-autobiographical work of fiction by Georges Perec, published in 1975. Perec's novel consists of alternating chapters of autobiography and of a fictional story, divided into two parts. The autobiographical thread is a collection of uncertain memories, as well as descriptions of photos which preserve moments from Perec's childhood. The memories in the first part of the book lead up to Perec's separation from his mother when he was evacuated in the Second World War. The second part recollects his life as an evacuee. The adult narrator sometimes provides interpretations of the childhood memories, and often comments on details of the memories which his research showed to be false or borrowed.

| - W ou le Souvenir d'enfance est un ouvrage de Georges Perec paru en 1975. Le texte est un récit croisé, alternant une fiction (un chapitre sur deux, en italiques) et un récit autobiographique, en apparence très différents. Les données autobiographiques, et tout particulièrement la catastrophe vécue par Georges Perec, qui a perdu dans son enfance son père tué au combat en 1940 et sa mère déportée à Auschwitz en 1943, éclairent la compréhension de la partie fictionnelle du récit.

| - W o el recuerdo de la infancia (en francés, W ou le souvenir d'enfance) es un libro del escritor francés Georges Perec, publicado en 1975 en la colección «Les Lettres nouvelles» de Éditions Denoël. En castellano fue publicado por primera vez en 1987 en la colección «Narrativa» de Ediciones Península, con traducción de Alberto Clavería. Dedicado a una persona con la inicial E., el libro contiene dos relatos en paralelo: el primero es la reescritura de una historia ficticia olvidada, titulada W y escrita por el autor en su niñez; el segundo es un intento de Perec por escribir su autobiografía de aquellos años, en gran parte olvidada por los estragos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y el Holocausto.
