Émile Zola: Writing Modern Life

by Rachel Bowlby

This book is aimed at anyone who has heard of Zola but doesn't know much about him and hasn't read his work. Through an engaging and informative style, Bowlby showcases why Zola's books are so valuable for readers. The volume also draws on Zola's recently published letters home during the period of almost a year when he was in exile in England as a result of his part in the Dreyfus affair.
