Emile Zola is one of the pillars of world realistic literature, the founder and theorist of naturalism, a keen researcher of everyday life, a passionate human rights activist and publicist who influenced the entire realistic direction of 20th century literature. His most famous work is the epochal twenty-volume cycle "Rougon-Macquart", which reveals to the reader an endless panorama of human vices and virtues in the scenery of the Second Empire. This is a genuine encyclopedia of life in Paris and the French provinces, using the example of several generations of one family that gave birth to the strangest fruits.
This illustrated edition includes novels that occupy, according to the order of reading prescribed by the author, the thirteenth and fourteenth places in the cycle.
The novel "The Trap", first published in 1876, shocked the writer's contemporaries. In a poor neighborhood, far from the eyes of the prosperous and prosperous upper crust of the Second Empire, life is a struggle for existence, which can only be ensured by daily, exhausting work. And each of those living here constantly walks on the edge of a demonic trap that swallows the destinies of ordinary Parisians, depriving them of their human appearance and human aspirations...
The novel "Creation", published ten years later, is imbued with a different mood. It is a kind of manifesto of the great transformations in the visual arts, carried out by the Impressionists. At the will of the author, Claude Lantier, the son of the heroine of "The Trap" Gervaise Macquart, embodies the romantic image of an artist-reformer, who does not bow his head under a hail of ridicule from the adherents of traditional painting and is ready to sacrifice everything for the sake of art...
