A dramatic tale of murder and passion in 1930s France from the
author of David Golder and Suite Francaise.
In a French courtroom, the trial of a woman is taking place. Gladys
Eysenach is no longer young, but she is still beautiful, elegant,
cold. She is accused of shooting dead her much-younger lover. As
the witnesses take the stand and the case unfolds, Gladys relives
fragments of her past: her childhood, her absent father, her
marriage, her turbulent relationship with her daughter, her
decline, and then the final irrevocable act.
With the depth of insight and pitiless compassion we have come to
expect from the author of Suite Francaise, Irene Nemirovsky shows
us the soul of a desperate woman obsessed with her lost youth.
