Émile Zola is one of the pillars of world realistic literature, the founder and theorist of naturalism, a passionate explorer of everyday life, a passionate human rights activist, and a publicist who influenced the entire realist movement in 20th-century literature. His most famous work is the landmark twenty-volume "Rougon-Macquart" cycle, which reveals to the reader an endless panorama of human vices and virtues against the backdrop of the Second Empire. It is a veritable encyclopedia of life in Paris and the French provinces, illustrated through several generations of a single family, which bore the strangest fruits.
This illustrated edition includes the novels "Nana" and "The Earth," which, according to the author's prescribed reading order, occupy the seventeenth and eighteenth places in the cycle.
Nana, the heroine of the novel of the same name (1880), first appeared as a child in the novel "The Trap" (1877).

The past is forgotten, and gold flows like a river through the fingers of this depraved daughter of Parisian streets, and the powerful consider it a blessing to bow at her feet...
The novel "Land" takes place in a rural community where another scion of the family, Jean Macquart, is trying to establish himself. The people living here are true workers, tirelessly tilling their land and returning to it when the time comes. However, even this small world, located far from the bustling life of Paris, is subject to the pervasive vices of human society...
