Zola's masterpiece of working life, Germinal (1885), exposes the inhuman conditions of miners in northern France in the 1860s. By Zola's death in 1902 it had come to symbolise the call for freedom from oppression so forcefully that the crowd which gathered at his State funeral chanted 'Germinal! Germinal!'. The central figure, Etienne Lantier, is an outsider who enters the community and eventually leads his fellow-miners in a strike protesting against pay-cuts - a strike which becomes a losing battle against starvation, repression, and sabotage. Yet despite all the violence and disillusion which rock the mining community to its foundations, Lantier retains his belief in the ultimate germination of a new society, leading to a better world. Germinal is a dramatic novel of working life and everyday relationships, but it is also a complex novel of ideas, given fresh vigour and power in this new translation.

评分夜,阴沉漆黑,天空里没有星星。 爱弥儿·左拉最好的四部作品,萌芽,小酒店,娜娜和金钱。我一直觉得小酒店是左拉最好的作品,因为我太喜欢绮尔维丝了。娜娜的主角是她的女儿,而萌芽的主角是她的小儿子。 这是一部煤矿罢工的小说,所以长期以来被左翼过度解读,远离了那个时...
