The Attack on the Mill (Unabridged)
This carefully crafted ebook: «The Attack on the Mill (Unabridged)» is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Originally titled «L'Attaque du moulin», The Attack on the Mill is an 1889 novella by Émile Zola, translated by William Foster Apthorp. The aim of the novella was to promote the ideals of Naturalism, by treating the events of the Franco-Prussian War in a realistic and often unheroic way, in contrast to officially approved patriotic views of the war. Émile Zola (1840 – 1902) was an influential French novelist, the most important example of the literary school of naturalism, and a major figure in the political liberalization of France. More than half of Zola's novels were part of a set of 20 books collectively known as Les Rougon-Macquart. Zola from the start at the age of 28 had thought of the complete layout of the series. Set in France's Second Empire, the series traces the «environmental» influences of violence, alcohol and prostitution which became more prevalent during the second wave of the Industrial Revolution. The series examines two branches of a family: the respectable (that is, legitimate) Rougons and the disreputable (illegitimate) Macquarts for five generations.
The Ladies' Paradise (Vizetelly Translation, Unabridged)
This carefully crafted ebook: «The Ladies' Paradise (The Ladies' Delight) – Unabridged» is formatted for your eReader with a functional table of contents. Also known as Au Bonheur des Dames; The Ladies' Delight or The Ladies' Paradise; is the eleventh novel in the Rougon-Macquart series by Émile Zola. The novel is set in the world of the department store, an innovative development in mid-nineteenth century retail sales. Zola models his store after Le Bon Marché, which consolidated under one roof many of the goods hitherto sold in separate shops. In Au Bonheur des Dames, the store is a symbol of capitalism, the modern city and the bourgeois family. It is emblematic of changes in consumer culture, sexual attitudes and class relations taking place at the end of the century. The novel tells the story of Denise Baudu, a 20-year-old woman from Valognes who comes to Paris with her brothers and begins working at the department store Au Bonheur des Dames as a saleswoman. Zola describes the inner workings of the store from the employees' perspective, including the 13-hour workdays, the substandard food and the bare lodgings (for the female staff). Many of the conflicts in the novel spring from the struggles for advancement and the malicious infighting and gossip among the staff. Au Bonheur des Dames is a sequel to «Pot-Bouille». Like its predecessor, Au Bonheur des Dames focuses on Octave Mouret (b. 1840), who at the end of the previous novel married Caroline Hédouin, the owner of a small silk shop. Now a widower, Octave has expanded the business into an international retail powerhouse occupying (at the beginning of the book) most of an entire city block. Au Bonheur des Dames has been made into a number of films, television series and plays.

Yo acuso
Este ebook presenta «Yo acuso» con un sumario dinámico y detallado. En 1894, el caso Dreyfus sale a la luz, y se acusa al capitán Alfred Dreyfus, de treinta y cinco años, judío y alsaciano, de alta traición. Pese a las declaraciones de inocencia del acusado, declaraciones que no se hacen públicas, se lo condena a cumplir cadena perpetua en la isla del Diablo, en la Guayana francesa. En marzo de 1896, el nuevo responsable del Servicio de Información (Service de Renseignements), el coronel Picquart, descubre un telegrama que no deja dudas de que Dreyfus no es el informador de los alemanes en el Estado Mayor francés, sino que el verdadero traidor había sido el comandante Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy. Picquart informa a sus superiores y expresa su convicción de que fue un error atribuir el escrito a Dreyfus. No obstante, el Estado Mayor destina a Picquart a la frontera del este y, posteriormente, a Túnez. Los tribunales militares se niegan a revisar el caso Dreyfus y tratan de sofocar el escándalo, pero no logran evitar que algunos rumores alerten a personalidades de la izquierda. En 1897, con la ayuda del periodista Bernard Lazare, del senador Scheurer-Kestner y del diputado Joseph Reinach, Mathieu Dreyfus, hermano de Alfred, promueve una campaña en Le Figaro para exigir que se investigue a Esterhazy y se revise el juicio de 1894. Los conservadores reaccionan de inmediato. Indignado, Émile Zola, próximo a la izquierda radical y a grupos socialistas, entra en liza. La campaña de Le Figaro rompe la conspiración de silencio. En diciembre de 1897, Esterhazy, cuya letra es idéntica a la de los facsimiles del escrito que la prensa ha reproducido, es inculpado y comparece ante un tribunal militar; los jueces lo absuelven en enero de 1898....
