Therese Raquin (Le Livre De Poche) (French Edition) French, French Language edition

In a dingy apartment on the Passage du Pont-Neuf in Paris, Th���������������©r���������������¨se Raquin is trapped in a loveless marriage to her sickly cousin, Camille. The numbing tedium of her life is suddenly shattered when she embarks on a turbulent affair with her husband����������������s earthy friend Laurent, but their animal passion for each other soon compels the lovers to commit a crime that will haunt them forever. Th���������������©r���������������¨se Raquin caused a scandal when it appeared in 1867 and brought its twenty-seven-year-old author a notoriety that followed him throughout his life. Zola����������������s novel is not only an uninhibited portrayal of adultery, madness, and ghostly revenge, but also a devastating exploration of the darkest aspects of human existence.
