Abstract

The project presented here is a study of the work of the Ukrainian writer, Iréne Némirovsky, from 3 of her main works, David Golder, Vin de Solitud and Suíte Francesa. This last one was published posthumously, thanks to the dedication and work of the rewriting of her two daughters, Denise Epstein and Élisabeth Gille. The writer was born in Kiev, in the year of 1903, when pogroms ravaged the Jewish population and Russia was promoting the migration of almost two million Jews to other countries. Her work was recognized and published mostly between 1925 and 1940 in France before the author was captured and killed in 1942 at the Auschwitz Concentration Camp at the age of 39. These works were forgotten and not republished. With the appearance of Suíte Francesa, in 2004, all of her works were republished and her works were translated in over 30 countries (AU)
