Im going to celebrate the 21st century with a re-read of His Excellency Eugene Rougon. * Swiftly Tilting Planet *

Im going to celebrate the 21st century with a re-read of His Excellency Eugene Rougon. * Swiftly Tilting Planet * It is easy to savor certain installments in isolation [...] But to read through the Rougon-Macquart in Oxford's fine new translations - fourteen of the twenty volumes retranslated since 2000, seven in the last four years - is to see the mosaic that only Zola's full scheme makes possible. * Aaron Matz, The New York Review of Books *
