The English edition is available from the Harvill Press, pb is due February 2006 with Vintage: http://makeashorterlink.com/?V5D723379 .
There are translations into Spanish and Hebrew as well.
There's a short English review here:
Eilene Hoft-March: " Le Non de Klara is a stunning first novel that made off with two coveted literary prizes in France. Set in Paris in the months following World War II, the story follows the attempted re-integration of a Holocaust survivor into what’s left of her family. Written as the journal of one of the family members, the novel emphasizes the incomprehensibility of Klara’s “history” and its incompatibility with the “normal” business of living. The difficult subject matter demands very careful treatment; fortunately, Aaron crafts her work without recourse to cheap dramatic tricks." http://www.lawrence.edu/news/pubs/lt/sprin...ofpicks03.shtml
The only English-language review:
Haaretz: "Politically correct in hell" by Lena Shillony http://news.haaretz.co.il/hasen/spages/524119.html
