Ir?ne N?mirovsky: Her Life and Works, the first English-language biography of the author of the internationally acclaimed novel, Suite Fran?aise, is an intimate portrait of a woman who bore witness to the tragedies that befell France in the early days of the occupation, and who herself became a victim of the Nazi regime. The result of close textual analysis of her work and primary documents passed on from N?mirovsky herself, this fascinating book explores a literary work that revisits in a unique way Jewish identity, exile, betrayal, and the solidarity of a persecuted people.

Jonathan Weiss is Professor of French Language and Literature at Colby College. In 1996, he met Ir?ne N?mirovsky's two daughters. With their help, he was able to consult all the documents that their mother had passed on to them. This biography is the result of that research and of close textual analysis of N?mirovsky's literary work.
