Dans les ruelles sombres du Paris du XIXe siècle, Thérèse Raquin mène une existence morne, prisonnière d'un mariage sans amour avec son mari maladif, Camille. Mais lorsqu'elle s'abandonne à une liaison passionnée avec l'audacieux Laurent, leur désir brûlant les pousse à commettre l'irréparable.
Ce qui devait être une quête de liberté se transforme en cauchemar. Rongés par la culpabilité et la paranoïa, Thérèse et Laurent sombrent peu à peu dans la folie, hantés par le spectre de leur crime. Chef-d'œuvre du naturalisme, Thérèse Raquin est un roman saisissant où amour, trahison et remords s'entrelacent dans une descente aux enfers inéluctable.
Un incontournable de la littérature classique, parfait pour les amateurs de drames psychologiques et de récits sombres et envoûtants.
Info autore
¿Émile Zola was a French novelist, journalist, and playwright, born on April 2, 1840, in Paris. He is renowned as a leading figure in the literary school of naturalism, which emphasized observation and the scientific method in fiction. His extensive body of work includes the twenty-volume series Les Rougon-Macquart, which examines French society during the Second Empire. ¿Beyond his literary achievements, Zola played a pivotal role in the political liberalization of France. He is perhaps best known for his bold intervention in the Dreyfus affair, a political scandal that divided France in the late 19th century. His open letter, "J'Accuse...!", published in 1898, accused the French government of antisemitism and wrongful imprisonment of Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish army officer. ¿Zola's outspoken defense of Dreyfus led to his own prosecution and a brief exile in England. His commitment to justice and his influential literary works have left an indelible mark on French culture and society. Zola's legacy continues to be celebrated for both his artistic contributions and his courageous stand against injustice.
