Emile Zola was French novelist who wrote in the school of
naturalism and is noted for his work in revolutionizing France. The
Rougon-Macquart series brought Zola literary fame and is considered
his life work. It took 25 years to finish the 20 volumes. The idea
for writing the social history of a family encompassing several
volumes probably came from his reading the works of Balzac. Zola
shows how people in a family who appear to be quite individualistic
actually are quite similar. Heredity and proximity determine who we
are and how we act. This is an excellent companion piece for anyone
studying the Rougon-Macquart.
