This is the first English translation in fifty years of Le Ventre de Paris ( The Belly of Paris ). The third in Zola's great cycle, Les Rougon-Macquart , it is as enthralling as Germinal, Th???r???se Raquin , and the other novels in the series. Its focus on the great Paris food hall, Les Halles--combined with Zola's famous impressionist descriptions of food--make this a particularly memorable novel. Brian Nelson's lively translation captures the spirit of Zola's world and his Introduction illuminates the use of food in the novel to represent social class, social attitudes, political conflicts, and other aspect of the culture of the time. The bibliography and notes ensure that this is the most critically up-to-date edition of the novel in print.
