ZOLA'S POWERFUL REALISTIC NOVELS.
PIPING HOT!
NANA:
TRANSLATED WITHOUT ABRIDGMENT FROM THE 127TH FRENCH EDITION.
Mr. HENRY JAMES on "NANA."
"A novelist with a system, a passionate conviction, a great plan--incontestable attributes of M. Zola--is not now to be easily found in England or the United States, where the story-teller's art is almost exclusively feminine, is mainly in the hands of timid women, whose acquaintance with life is severely restricted, and who are not conspicuous for general views. The novel, moreover, among ourselves, is almost always addressed to young unmarried ladies, or at least always assumes them to be a large part of the novelist's public.
THE "ASSOMMOIR;"
TRANSLATED WITHOUT ABRIDGMENT FROM THE 97TH FRENCH EDITION.
"After reading Zola's novels it seems as if in all others, even in the truest, there were a veil between the reader and the things described, and there is present to our minds the same difference as exists between the representations of human faces on canvas and the reflection of the same faces in a mirror. It is like finding truth for the first time.
