More About This Book

Overview

Emile Zola (1840-1902) is perhaps the most important French writer of the 19th century. Zola dramatically shaped the course of French literature through the development of naturalism, characterized by the unsentimental and realistic portrayal of middle and lower class French life. His twenty novel cycle "Les Rougon-Macquart" is epic in scope, often drawing comparisons to the prolific output of Balzac. Here, in his 1878 novel "Une page d'amour" ("A Love Episode") we encounter the eighth installment of this cycle. "A Love Episode" is Zola at his best. Read as the Rougon-Macquart family tree continues to develop, we witness the dynamism of the human spirit in full bloom. Only Zola captures French life under the Second Empire with such force and vision.

    Creative and analytical genius

    Rougon-Macquart, volume 8: There can be no doubt in the mind of the judicial critic that in the pages of 'A Love Episode' ('Une page d'amour') the reader finds more of the poetical, more of the delicately artistic, more of the subtle emanation of creative and analytical genius, than in any other of Zola's works... In all literature there is nothing like the portrayal of the punishment of Helene Grandjean. Helene and little Jeanne are reversions of type. The old 'neurosis,' seen in earlier bran-ches of the family, reappears in these characters. Readers of the series will know where it began. Poor little Jeanne, most pathetic of creations, is a study in abnormal jealousy, a jealousy which seems to be clairvoyant, full of supernatural intuitions, turning everything to suspicion, a jealousy which blights and kills. Could the memory of those weeks of anguish fade from Helene's soul? This dying of a broken heart is not merely the figment of a poet's fancy. It has happened in real life. The coming of death, save in the case of the very aged, seems, nearly always, brutally cruel, at least to those friends who survive. (C. C. Starkweather)
