Publisher Description: In haunting ways, this gorgeous novel prefigures Ir ne N mirovsky's masterpiece Suite Fran aise. Set in France between 1910 and 1940 and first published in France in 1947, five years after the author's death, All Our Worldly Goods is a gripping story of war, family life and star-crossed lovers. Pierre and Agnes marry for love against the wishes of his parents and his grandfather, the tyrannical family patriarch. Their marriage provokes a family feud that cascades down the generations. This brilliant novel is full of drama, heartbreak, and the telling observations that have made N mirovsky's work so beloved and admired. |
