Being a history buff, his writings rank very highly. I'm starting Germinal and thought that that he deserved a corner in our hallowed authors section.

Emile Zola

Hello!
I have only read Thérèse Raquin and I liked it very much.
I also have Nana and Le Ventre de Paris - but not yet read.
From the historical point of view Zola is probably most famous in connection to the Dreyfus affair, that had an immense influence on the society in France (in Proust's work this is also mentioned very often
).
Greetings

Aahhh, thanks for the reminder. I remember reading the book (Nana) around 20 years ago and really loving it. It is definitely on my 'to read again' list ~ if I am lucky enough to find a copy. Anyone else read it?
