New York: The Modern Library, 1963. Reprint Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. MODERN LIBRARY # 142 Introduction by Ernest Boyd. Very good blue cloth. Toledano binding # 10, [n.d., Circa 1963], 12mo, xii, [2], 3-545pp.[1], 2 pages advertising bound in, "French novelist, story-writer and critic. Zola was the leading naturalist, but was in reality a romantic symbolist, at his best when depicting scenes reminiscent of the paintings of Bosch or Breughel. He made his name with the tense murder story Therese Raquin (1867) and then planned and completed his twenty-novel series Les Rougons-Macquart. These are not liked by Marxists because they dwell on the squalid, and have no serious political suggestions to make. Zola was interested in justice, as his behavior over the Dreyfus case showed (he risked prison in writing his influential I Accuse); but he distrusted revolutionaries, as he demonstrated with the highly convincing character Souverine in Germinal, the man who killed hundreds and then walk away without a thought for them, except that he is working for the good of all the exploited."
