Ecrit dans le feu de l'Histoire, Suite française dépeint presque en direct l'Exode de juin 1940, qui brassa dans un désordre tragique des familles françaises de toute sorte, des plus huppées aux plus modestes. Avec bonheur, Irène Némirovsky traque les innombrables petites lâchetés et les fragiles élans de solidarité d'une population en déroute. Cocottes larguées par leur amant, grands bourgeois dégoûtés par la populace, blessés abandonnés dans des fermes engorgent les routes de France bombardées au hasard... Peu à peu l'ennemi prend possession d'un pays inerte et apeuré. Comme tant d'autres, le village de Bussy est pays alors contraint d'accueillir des troupes allemandes. Exacerbées par la présence de l'occupant, les tensions sociales et frustrations des habitants se réveillent... Roman bouleversant, intimiste, implacable, dévoilant avec une extraordinaire lucidité l'âme de chaque Français pendant l'Occupation (enrichi des notes et de la correspondance d'Irène Némirovsky), Suite française ressuscite d'une plume brillante et intuitive un pan à vif de notre mémoire.

D'origine juive ukrainienne, Irène Némirovsky, née en 1903 à Kiev, connaît le succès dès son premier roman, David Golder (1929), puis avec Le Bal (1930). Après l'Exode, elle se réfugie dans un village du Morvan avant d'être arrêtée par les gendarmes français, puis assassinée à Auschwitz, l'été 1942. Agée de treize ans, sa fille aînée, Denise, emporte dans sa fuite une valise contenant une relique douloureuse : le manuscrit ultime de sa mère, Suite française, jusqu'à ce jour inédit.
