Dimanche and Other Stories

Praise

“Luminous. . . . These accomplished tales create worlds full of secrets and treacheries. . . . “Flesh and Blood” is a masterpiece of familial subterfuge. . . . In this superlative translation, Némirovsky’s characters emerge full-fleshed, and her voice remains timeless and relevant.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Stunning. . . . [Némirovsky] wrote, for all to read at last, some of the greatest, most humane and incisive fiction that conflict has produced.”
—The New York Times Book Review
 
“Némirovsky’s scope is like that of Tolstoy: She sees the fullness of humanity and its tenuous arrangements and manages to put them together with a tone that is affectionate, patient, and relentlessly honest.”
—O: The Oprah Magazine
