I admired this book, but I'm not certain that I enjoyed it. Certain themes seemed familiar, not just from Nemirovsky's life abut also from her book [[Jezebel by Irene Nemirovsky|Jezebel]]. I also found it difficult to warm to Helene in any way. She had the worst of upbringings, knew little in the way of familial affection and the result is someone who is hard as nails. The books is ''worth'' reading but there are other Nemirovsky novels which I'd go for first if your time is limited. My favourites are [[Fire in the Blood by Irene Nemirovsky|Fire in the Blood]], published posthumously and [[The Dogs and the Wolves by Irene Nemirovsky|The Dogs and the Wolves]], a poignant love story.
