Quotes by Élisabeth Gille (?)

“The widespread joy that greeted Rasputin’s assassination confused me. No matter what crimes the starets had committed, I was not accustomed to the idea of rejoicing at a man’s death, even less at his murder.”
― Élisabeth Gille, The Mirador: Dreamed Memories of Irene Nemirovsky by Her Daughter

“I read and reread these pages all day long as I sat next to the cast-iron stove. In the absence of coal, we burned wooden boards pilfered from the rubble of destroyed houses in order to keep warm in these chilly early days of spring. In times of plenty my appetite had always been small, but now I often went hungry.”
― Élisabeth Gille, The Mirador: Dreamed Memories of Irene Nemirovsky by Her Daughter

“St. Petersburg—“Peter” to insiders—was renamed Petrograd at the start of the war in an attempt to erase its Germanic origins. From the first months of 1915, the atmosphere in the city had changed completely.”
― Élisabeth Gille, The Mirador: Dreamed Memories of Irene Nemirovsky by Her Daughter
