Germinal

Germinal

Émile Zola

A novel that represents the pinnacle of literary creation by one of the most significant representatives of naturalism in literature.

In his best work, Germinal, Émile Zola realistically and in great detail described the inhuman living and working conditions of miners in northern France in the 1860s. The novel's central character, Etienne Lantier, a new worker in the pit, finds himself in the role of leader of a strike against wage cuts, but this struggle is doomed to failure and will have terrible consequences.

Germinal, a novel about the life of workers, sexual desire and interpersonal relationships, is the thirteenth book in the Rougon-Macquart cycle and represents the pinnacle of Zola's work, in which this pioneer of literary naturalism most effectively combined documentary with poetry, reality with myth, and stood alongside Balzac, Stendhal and Flaubert, the greats of 19th-century French literature
