Найти книгу: "The Ladies' Paradise"

One of the most important, though controversial, French novelists of the late nineteenth century, and founder of the Realist movement, was Emile Zola (1840-1902). In 1871 Zola began to his most notable series of novels, the «Rougon-Macquart Novels,» that relate the history of a fictional family under the Second Empire. As a strict naturalist, Zola was greatly concerned with science, especially the problems of evolution and heredity vs. environment. However, unlike Honore de Balzac, whose works examined a wider scope of society, Zola focused on the evolution of one, single family. «The Ladies' Paradise» is the eleventh novel in this series, and begins exactly where «Pot-Bouille» left off. Octave Mouret has married and now owns a department store where twenty year old Denise Baudu, who has come to Paris with her brothers, takes a job as a saleswoman. The novel reflects symbolically on capitalism, the modern city, changes in consumer culture, the bourgeois family and sexual attitudes.
