Product Information

Here is a missing piece of the remarkable posthumous legacy of Irène Némirovsky, author of the internationally acclaimedSuite Française. The novelonly now assembled in its entiretyteems with the intertwined lives of an insular French village in the years before the war, when "peace" was less important as a political state than as a coveted personal condition: the untroubled pinnacle of happiness. At the center of the tale is Silvio: in his younger years he fled the boredom of the village and made a life of travel and adventure. Now he's returned, living in a farmer's hovel in the middle of the woods, and, much to his family's chagrin, perfectly content with his solitude. As his narration unfolds, we are given an intimate picture of the loves and infidelities, the scandals, the youthful ardor and regrets of age that tie Silvio to the long-guarded secrets of the past.

Reviews
"Courageous, uncompromising . . . An entire world, vividly rendered, emerges from [these] pages . . . Némirovsky sets the tragedies of the plot in motion so unobtrusively, yet so surely, that when they come together the book has the inevitabilityand yet the shockthat characterizes the books that mark us . . . If Thomas Hardy were alive to readFire in the Blood,I think he'd recognize Némirovsky as kin." Charles Taylor,Newsday "With startling economy, Némirovsky telegraphs the prejudices, passions and taboos that govern life in this isolated community . . . Subdued on its surface, but with a tamped-down sensuality that gives it a near-vicious narrative drive, the book has a powerful sting in its tail. Translator Sandra Smith deftly renders its noirish bite into English, giving us a taste of what Némirovsky the writer was like before history handed her the subject matter that killed her." Michael Upchurch,Seattle Times "Posthumous second acts are tough. ButFire in the Bloodis an almost perfect miniature, a tale of divided loves and loyalties set in an insular rural French village." O: Oprah Magazine "Exquisitely wrought . . . If you loved the author'sSuite Françaiseand how could you not?you'll likewise take to this recently discovered treasure . . . So great is Némirovsky's reading of the human heart that her tale has the power of myth. And so true does it ring to reality that one could call it not so much a love but a life story." Edward Cone,Library Journal(starred) "Stripped of the backdrop of war, the natural surroundings ofFire In The Bloodadd a depth and resonance to each of the story's characters, whether young or old, male or female. Subtle in its intention, this novella takes humanity in all its guises and captures the deep-seated desire for belonging and understanding." - Anna Millar,Scotland on Sunday "Fire in the Blood, on which it seems she was still working when she was taken away to her death, confirms Némirovsky's brilliance as a storyteller with a deep understanding of the hidden flaws and cruelties not just in French society but in the human heart." - Anne Chisholm,The Telegraph(UK) "Passion and dispassion stare at each other with mutual lack of understanding. In a book fuelled with images of fire and embers, Némirovsky brilliantly depicts a closed-in, inward-looking community, then gives what happens in it universal resonance by exhibiting not only what people do to each other but what the passing of time does to us all." -Peter Kemp,Sunday Times(UK) "Like the second half of Suite Française,Fire in the Bloodis set in a small, isolated village in rural France and displays, once again, Némirovsky's unnerving ability to map out her characters' internal faults with a humanity reminiscent of Chekhov.... Némirovsky is superb at teasing out people's personal worlds, disillusionment, moral hypocrisy and the ways in which old age invariably shows happiness to be little more than a youthful dream." -Metro(UK) From the Hardcover edition., "Stripped of the backdrop of war, the natural surroundings of "Fire In The Blood" add a depth and resonance to each of the story's characters, whether young or old, male or female.
