Description
Thérèse Raquin is a groundbreaking novel that explores the darker aspects of human nature. Written in 1867, it marked a significant turning point in Émile Zola's literary career, as he began to develop his naturalist style. The story is based on a tragic event that was widely reported in the press at the time, and it delves into themes of passion, adultery, murder, and remorse. Despite its unflinching portrayal of these subjects, the novel has been subject to criticism from moralists who struggled to understand Zola's approach. However, Thérèse Raquin also established a new literary model that would go on to influence writers for over 50 years in Europe and America.
