>There is also Nathalie Sarraute, who writes in French.

I apologize for being a commentator once again:

She wrote in French, but was Russian by birth:

      Sarraute, Nathalie
      1900-1999, French novelist,
      b. Ivanovo, Russia, as Natasha Tcherniak;

Being Jewish, during the occupation she posed as a governess of her own
daughter to hide from the nazi. She is someone who started writing late in
life.
