La nostalgia de la inocencia, el retrato sin concesiones de una humanidad que sufre: numerosas son las afinidades que unen la obra de Irène Némirovsky con la de Antón Chéjov. Nacida en 1903, un año antes de la muerte de este, la autora de Suite francesa quedó prendada por la trayectoria y el destino del célebre escritor ruso. Precisa, íntima y profundamente conmovedora, esta biografía, que es también una magnífica panorámica de la literatura rusa, revela la compleja personalidad de Chéjov, con todos sus padecimientos, anhelos, frustraciones y esperanzas.
Publicada en 1946, cuatro años después de la trágica desaparición de Irène Némirovsky, Vida de Chéjov evoca las extraordinarias coincidencias entre dos almas sorprendentemente afines.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A biography that casts a light on the character of Anton Chekhov, his truth, his humanity, and his exceptional sensibility.
The nostalgia for innocence, the unapologetic portrait of a humanity in pain--there are so many similarities between Irène Némirovsky's work and Anton Chekhov's. Born in 1903, a year before Chekhov's death, the author of Suite Française was captivated by the career and fate of the famous Russian author. Explicit, intimate, and profoundly moving, this biography, also a magnificent overview of Russian literature, reveals the complex personality of Chekhov, with all his afflictions, yearning, frustration, and hope.
Published in 1946, four years after Irène Némirovsky's tragic disappearance, Life of Chekhov evokes the extraordinary coincidences between two souls amazingly alike.

About the Author
Sin embargo, la Segunda Guerra Mundial marcó trágicamente su destino. Denegada en varias ocasiones por el régimen de Vichy su solicitud de nacionalidad francesa, Némirovsky fue deportada y murió asesinada en Auschwitz en 1942, igual que su marido, Michel Epstein. Sesenta años más tarde, el azar quiso que Irène Némirovsky regresara al primer plano de la actualidad literaria con el enorme éxito de Suite francesa, su obra cumbre, descubierta casualmente por sus hijas, publicada en 2004 y galardonada a título póstumo con el premio Renaudot, entre otras muchas distinciones. Las novelas de Irène Némirovsky, publicadas en español por Salamandra, han sido traducidas a treinta y nueve idiomas, demostrando el interés por una autora que se sitúa sin duda entre los grandes escritores del siglo XX.
