Was given to me for BC.
Kam mit zum MeetUP in der Hoffnung eine geneigten Leserin zu finden und ... jaaa, hat geklappt! :)
vor einigen Jahren wurde viel über dieses Buch geschrieben, so ist es schön, dass es jetzt so zu mir geflattert kommt.
Set during the year that France fell to the Nazis, Suite Française falls into two parts. The first is a brilliant depiction of a group of Parisians as they flee the Nazi invasion; the second follows the inhabitants of a small rural community under occupation. Suite Française is a novel that teems with wonderful characters struggling with the new regime. However, amidst the mess of defeat, and all the hypocrisy and compromise, there is hope. True nobility and love exist, but often in surprising places.
