«Le Rêve» is a novel by Émile Zola published by Pocket in paperback, with 312 pages in French.
In the winter of 1860, Angélique, a young embroiderer raised in a cathedral city, lives devoted to her craft and an intense faith until she meets the son of an aristocratic family. Her idealized love clashes with social differences; Zola weaves together heredity, environment, desire and death in a tale of mystical and realist tone.
«Le Rêve» is the 16th novel in Zola's Les Rougon-Macquart series. The work was originally published in 1888.
A read for those who want to discover a more lyrical side of Zola, distinct from the naturalism of his better-known novels.
Émile Édouard Charles Antoine Zola was a French novelist, journalist, playwright, the best-known practitioner of the literary school of naturalism, and an important contributor to the development of theatrical naturalism. He was a major figure in the political liberalization of France and in the exoneration of the falsely accused and convicted army officer Alfred Dreyfus, which is encapsulated in his renowned newspaper opinion headlined J'Accuse...! Zola was nominated for the first and second Nobel Prizes in Literature in 1901 and 1902.
