“Extraordinary.”
—A.S. Byatt, The Guardian
“A slender, elegant book which displays an unbroken respect for the resilience of the human spirit.”
—The Daily Mail
“Poignant. . . . A delicate and subtle study of lives swept up by forces beyond their control or understanding.”
—The Telegraph
“A remarkable novel. . . . Némirovsky’s voice, compassionate yet always shrewd, with its sharp portrait of France at war and during the optimistic and confused twenties and early thirties, is always distinctive.”
