About this book

Young Étienne Lantier walks into the coal country of northern France looking for work and descends into the pits of Montsou, where whole families are worn down by hunger, danger, and wages that never stretch far enough. As conditions grow unbearable, he becomes the reluctant leader of a strike that pits desperate miners against the owners who control every part of their lives. Émile Zola based the novel on real disputes and his own research underground, and the result is among the most powerful accounts of labor and poverty ever written. The strike builds toward violence and catastrophe, yet the closing pages still look toward a harvest waiting to rise.

About the author

Émile Zola - BDeBooks
Émile Zola

Émile Zola (1840-1902) was a French novelist and the leading figure of literary naturalism. His twenty-volume Rougon-Macquart cycle traced one family under the Second Empire, and his open letter J'accuse in defense of Alfred Dreyfus reshaped the writer's role in public life.
