Book description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The remarkable story of men and women thrown together in circumstances beyond their control during World War II--a heartrending "portrait of a small French town under seige, and the people trying to survive, even to live, as Hitler's horrors march closer and closer to their doors" (New York). Beginning in Paris on the eve of the Nazi occupation in 1940, as Parisians flee the city, human folly surfaces in every imaginable way: a wealthy mother searches for sweets in a town without food; a couple is terrified at the thought of losing their jobs, even as their world begins to fall apart. Moving on to a provincial village now occupied by German soldiers, the locals must learn to coexist with the enemy--in their town, their homes, even in their hearts. When Irène Némirovsky began working on Suite Française, she was already a highly successful writer living in Paris. But she was also a Jew, and in 1942 she was arrested and deported to Auschwitz, where she died. For sixty-four years, this novel remained hidden and unknown.

Hairpin
Now I can enjoy my favorite books anytime, even during workouts. ListenBook Pro takes things up a notch with unlimited audiobook length. It's a game-changer! An unobjectionable but unexceptional audiobook experience. The narrator's performance was serviceable and the audio quality was fine, but nothing about the production particularly stood out or elevated the material. It was decent background listening. I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance.
