Los Kampf, una familia de nuevos ricos instalados en un lujoso piso parisino, tienen todo lo que el dinero puede comprar, pero les falta lo que m?s anhelan: el reconocimiento de la alta sociedad francesa. Deseosos de ganarse su admiraci?n, el matrimonio prepara un gran baile al que la se?ora Kampf proh?be asistir a su hija, Antoniette, ante lo cual la joven adolescente decide vengarse. El baile es una obra magistral en la que N?mirovsky nos hace un retrato exquisito de la dif?cil relaci?n de una madre y su hija, de la ambici?n social, la hipocres?a y del arduo camino hacia la edad adulta. Una peque?a joya de la literatura universal.
The Kampfs, a family of nouveau riche settled in a luxurious Parisian apartment, have everything money can buy, but they lack what they crave most: the recognition of French high society. Eager to win her admiration, the couple prepares a big ball that Mrs. Kampf forbids her daughter, Antoniette, to attend, to which the young teenager decides to take revenge. The Dance is a masterful work in which N?mirovsky makes an exquisite portrait of the difficult relationship of a mother and her daughter, of social ambition, hypocrisy and the arduous road to adulthood. A small jewel of universal literature.Author Biography

Irene Nemirovsky naci? en Kiev, con el nombre de Irina Lvivna Nemirovska. A ra?z de la Revoluci?n rusa, la familia tuvo que exiliarse a Francia. Tras graduarse en la Sorbona, Ir?ne comenz? su carrera literaria. "El baile" (1930), que contiene muchos elementos autobiogr?ficos, fue su mayor ?xito en vida. Deportados al campo de concentraci?n de Auschwitz, Ir?ne falleci? de tifus y su marido muri? gaseado. A?n habr?an de pasar cincuenta a?os para que sus hijas descubrieran "Suite francesa", acaso su obra m?s representativa y estremecedora.

Irene Nemirovsky was born in Kiev, with the name Irina Lvivna Nemirovska. As a result of the Russian Revolution, the family had to go into exile in France. After graduating from the Sorbonne, Ir?ne began her literary career. "The Dance" (1930), which contains many autobiographical elements, was her greatest success in life. Deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp, Ir?ne died of typhus and her husband died of gassing. It would still be fifty years before her daughters discovered "Suite fran?aise", perhaps her most representative and shocking work.
