Nemirovsky's death in Auschwitz in 1942 prevented her from seeing the day sixty-five years later that the existing two sections of her planned novel sequence Suite Francaise would be rediscovered & hailed as a masterpiece. Set during the year that France fell to the Nazis Suite Francaise falls into two parts. The first is a brilliant depiction of a group of Parisians as they flee the Nazi invasion; the second follows the inhabitants of a small rural community under occupation.
