Dimanche by Irene Nemirovsky
A collection of never-before-translated stories by the bestselling author of Suite Francaise, this is a gorgeous, gemlike volume with the same attention to detail that won Irene Nemirovsky so many fans. Written between 1934 and 1942, these ten stories mine the same terrain as her bestselling novels: a keen eye for the details of social class; the tensions between mothers and daughters, husbands and wives; the manners and mannerisms of the French bourgeoisie; and questions of religion and personal identity. Moving from the drawing rooms of pre-war Paris to the lives of men and women in wartime France, here is the beautiful work of a writer at the height of her tragically short career.-

Irene Nemirovsky (1903-1942) was from a affluent banking family in Kiev, Ukraine, and escaped to France following the Russian Revolution. She began writing after attending the Sorbonne in Paris and quickly found success with David Golder, which was followed by more than a dozen subsequent books. She was regularly published in French newspapers and literary publications throughout her life. In 1942, she perished in Auschwitz. Suite Francaise was published posthumously for the first time more than sixty years later. It went on to become a worldwide bestseller, with about a million copies sold in the United States alone.
