France, 1940. Lucile Angellier's husband has been captured as a prisoner-of-war, and all she can do is wait for him — and tend to the household controlled by her domineering mother-in-law. Their small village is soon occupied by a regiment of German soldiers, forcing the locals to coexist with an invading Nazi force.

Lieutenant Bruno von Falk takes up lodging with the Angellier women, and Lucile struggles with her growing feelings for the officer — a powerful love draws them together, and they fall victim to the tragedy of war.

Irene Némirovsky began writing Suite Francaise in 1940, but her death in Auschwitz prevented her from seeing the day, sixty-five years later, that the novel would be discovered by her daughter and hailed worldwide as a masterpiece. --back cover
