Reviews

It is rare that an author as well studied as Zola-not to mention as central to European modernity-benefits from a new critical reading that totally shifts our perceptions of the work, of its meanings, and of its place in literary history. Claire White has achieved this extraordinary feat in Zola's Dream. Andrew Counter, Professor of Modern French Literature, University of Oxford 'By reading Zola's late novels against the grain to expose their suppressed idealism, Claire White brilliantly demonstrates the centrality of literary debates in the history of the Third Republic.  A must-read for scholars of literature and history alike.' Maurice Samuels, Betty Jane Anlyan Professor of French, Yale University
