We will be reading Suite Francaise by Irene Nemirovsky for our meeting on November 15.
I have been meaning to read this book since it came out and I learned the back story. Irene Nemirovsky was a writer during WWII in France. She also happened to be Jewish. She did not survive the war having died in the infirmary at Auschwitz. In the 1990s her daughter found the notebooks with two novellas in them that were then published as Suite Francaise. Amazing backstory.
