In Secret is the story of a young woman, Therese Raquin, mired in a
loveless marriage to a sickly, self-centered man. Trapped in a
house owned by her pitiless mother-in-law, she yearns for love and
escape. She finds it in the arms of her husband's best friend--and
the only way they can find happiness is through murder. What
follows is the stuff of nightmares. Emile Zola's story is as
vibrant today as it was when it was written 150 years ago. Scorned
by critics for the perversity and violence of his characters, Zola
nonetheless went on to be one of the greatest and most popular
writers in the history of literature. Soon to be a Major Motion
Picture, In Secret is a compelling and modern story of guilt and
its consequences. This edition is amplified by an important
introduction by Stephen R. Pastore, one of the world's leading Zola
scholars and the addition of material for use by Book Discussion
Groups as well as the Movie Tie-In edition for the upcoming film IN
SECRET.
