About the book: 2008 / A hardened financier, for the sake of profit, drives the companion with whom he once started to suicide to suicide - this is the plot of the novel by Irene Nemirovsky "David Golder". The writer describes the behind the scenes of the cruel world of money in a dry, almost grotesque style, without sparing her heroes or sympathizing with them. This novel is both a picture of the morals that reign in the business world, and the story of the tragedy of an old man who was little loved in life, and a kind of parable about how no material wealth can hide the impoverishment of the soul. The novel “David Golder” is published in Russian for the first time.
