Published more than 60 years following the author's death at Auschwitz,
a remarkable story of life under the Nazi occupation includes two
parts - "A Storm in June," set amid the chaotic 1940
exodus from Paris on the eve of the Nazi invasion, and "Dolce,"
set in a German-occupied provincial village rife with jealousy,
resentment, resistance and collaboration.
