Beginning in Paris on the eve of the Nazi occupation in 1940.
"Suite Francaise" tells the remarkable story of men and women
thrown together in circumstances beyond their control. As Parisians
flee the city, human folly surfaces in every imaginable way: a
wealthy mother searches for sweets in a town without food; a couple
is terrified at the thought of losing their jobs, even as their
world begins to fall apart. Moving on to a provincial village now
occupied by German soldiers, the locals must learn to coexist with
the enemy--in their town, their homes, even in their hearts.
When Irene Nemirovsky began working on "Suite Francaise," she was
already a highly successful writer living in Paris. But she was
also a Jew, and in 1942 she was arrested and deported to Auschwitz,
where she died. For sixty-four years, this novel remained hidden
and unknown.
