Sinossi
In haunting ways this wonderful, compelling novel prefigures Suite Fran aise and some of the themes of Nemirovksy s great unfinished sequence of novels. All Our Worldly Goods, though, is complete, and exquisitely so a perfect novel in its own right. First published in France in 1947, after the author s death, it is a gripping story of family life and starcrossed lovers, of money and greed, set against the backdrop of France from 1910 to 1940 between two terrible wars. Pierre and Agn s marry for love against the wishes of his parents and the family patriarch, the tyrannical industrialist Julien Hardelot, provoking a family feud which cascades down the generations. This is Balzac or THE FORSYTE SAGA on a smaller, more intimate scale, the bourgeoisie observed close-up with Nemirovksy s characteristically sly humour and clear-eyed compassion. Full of drama and heartbreak, a telling observation of the devastating effects of two wars on a small town and an industrial family, this is Nemirovksy at the height of her powers. The exodus and flow of refugee humanity through the town in both wars foreshadows Suite Fran aise, but differently, because this is Northern France, near the Somme
