It is depressing in the extreme, but Zola's ability to conjure up a scene (a public laundry, a wedding party) is astonishing, and I kept reading, even as the story became gloomier and gloomier. In the days before the cinema, writers like Zola could evoke pictures using nothing but words. I also highly recommend "Au Bonheur des Dames" which has a much happier ending. I shall now look for a copy of "Nana".</p>Zola Murlay commented on 'Zola's <em>Nana</em>'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c82d353ef017ee452a8b7970d2012-10-21T05:04:28Z2012-10-21T08:27:20ZZola MurlayIf you liked Nana, move on to l'Assommoir.
