Complete and unabridged. A young priest, sickly and ecstatic, collapses and wakes with his memory gone in an enormous overgrown garden, where a girl and the summer teach him what his vocation had made him forget. Zola planned twenty volumes to trace one family; this is the fifth, his strangest, and the middle section - pure heat and vegetation - has no equal in his work. Its 79 original illustrations have been carefully restored and coloured for this edition.
Émile Zola was a French novelist and the leader of naturalism, who planned the twenty-volume Rougon-Macquart cycle to trace heredity and environment through one family under the Second Empire. He researched like a reporter, going down mines and riding locomotives. In 1898 he published J'Accuse. . . ! , the open letter that reopened the Dreyfus affair, and fled to England to escape prison for it.
