A review by nancidrum
Fire in the Blood by Irène Némirovsky

4.0

This little novella, written by Irene Nemirovsky the author of Suite Francaise, was a book I wanted to read after reading Suite Francaise, but somehow got lost in the dirge of books on my TBR shelf. What a treat to have stumbled upon it. This is a story of youth, old age and love powerfully told in just over 100 pages. Absolutely tragic that Irene Nemirovsky met her fate in a concentration camp at Auschwitz and the world missed out her potential for writing more books.
