Drinking Den - Zola Emile
Previously published as L'assommoir (The Dram Shop), Emile Zola's The Drinking Den is an unflinching study of a desperate young woman struggling against the ravages of vice. Abandoned by her lover and left to bring up their two children alone, Gervaise Macquart has to fight to earn an honest living. This Penguin Classics edition is translated from the French with an introduction by Robin Buss.
But with her husband's drinking and the unexpected appearance of a figure from her past, Gervaise's plans begin to unravel tragically. When she accepts the marriage proposal of Monsieur Coupeau, it seems as though she is on the path to a decent, respectable life at last. The Drinking Den caused a sensation when it was first published, with its gritty depiction of the poverty and squalor, slums and drinking houses of the Parisian underclass.
