Here is a true publishing eventthe first modern translation of a lost masterpiece by one of fictions giants. Censored upon publication in 1871, out of print since the 1950s, and untranslated for a century, Zolas The Kill (La Cure) emerges as an unheralded classic of naturalism. Second in the authors twentyvolume RougonMacquart saga, it is a riveting story of family transgression, heedless desire, and societal greed.The incestuous affair of Rene Saccard and her stepson, Maxime, is set against the frenzied speculation of Renes financier husband, Aristide, in a Paris becoming a modern metropolis and the capital of the nineteenth century. In the end, setting and story merge in actions that leave a womans spirit and a citys soul ravaged beyond repair. As vividly rendered by Arthur Goldhammer, one of the worlds premier translators from the French, The Kill contains all the qualities of the school of fiction marked, as Henry James wrote, by infernal intelligence.In this new incarnation, The Kill joins Nana and Germinal on the shelf of Zola classics, works by an immortal author whoexplicit, pitiless, wise, and unrelentingalways goes in for the kill.
