Product Information
"The Ladies' Paradise" (Au Bonheur des Dames) recounts the rise of the modern department store in late 19th-century Paris. The store is a symbol of capitalism, of the modern city, and of the bourgeois family; it is also emblematic of changes in consumer culture and the changes in sexual attitudes and class relations that were taking place at the end of the century. This new translation of the 11th novel in the Rougon-Macquart cycle captures the spirit of one of Zola's greatest works.Product Identifiers
