L'assommoir
Low stock: 1 left
Tout "L’Assommoir" peut se résumer dans cette phrase “Fermez les cabarets, ouvrez les écoles”, écrivait Zola en 1877. Afin d’atteindre son idéal, travailler, manger à sa faim et avoir toujours un endroit où dormir, Gervaise, honnête blanchisseuse installée dans le quartier de la Goutte-d’Or, livre bataille à l’alambic du café voisin. Triomphera-t-elle de la "machine à soûler" les travailleurs ? Accuse de "bas-fondmanie" par les antinaturalistes, attaque aussi par les républicains, qui lui reprochèrent d’avoir représenté le peuple sous des dehors hideux, Zola a voulu, dans le septième roman des "Rougon-Macquart", "peindre la déchéance fatale d’une famille ouvrière, dans le milieu empeste de nos faubourgs". Roman sur les ouvriers parisiens du Second Empire, "L’Assommoir" a la langue et l’odeur de la misère.

- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
