About the Author ?mile Zola was a French writer who is recognized as an exemplar of literary naturalism and for his contributions to the development of theatrical naturalism. Zola s best-known literary works include the twenty-volume Les Rougon-Macquart, an epic work that examined the influences of violence, alcohol and prostitution on French society through the experiences of two families, the Rougons and the Macquarts. Other remarkable works by Zola include Contes ? Ninon, Les Myst?res de Marseille, and Th?r?se Raquin.
In addition to his literary contributions, Zola played a key role in the Dreyfus Affair of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. His newspaper article J Accuse accused the highest levels of the French military and government of obstruction of justice and anti-semitism, for which he was convicted of libel in 1898. After a brief period of exile in England, Zola returned to France where he died in 1902. ?mile Zola is buried in the Panth?on alongside other esteemed literary figures Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.

14 of 14 people found the following review helpful. Modern intrigue + social commentary By A Customer This is, hands down, the most exciting of Zola's novels. It reads as quickly as any current novel on the best sellers' list, yet it contains all the elements we love about Zola, particularly his unique way of making social commentary the focal point of his novels. If you've never read Zola, I would recommend this book as your introduction into his world.
13 of 14 people found the following review helpful. Early days - but the boy shows promise By A Customer If you've never read Zola at all, don't start with "Fortune". Read one of two of the "masterpieces" first to get an idea of the man's true worth. Then come back to this book. Its main interest is as a "who's who" of Zola's characters, a family tree, a quick refresher when you read later novels in the Rougon-Macquart cycle. Compared to the later works, it seems to be written too much to a formula. Very much a "warm-up" exercise for the author's social and historical project. Chapters and descriptions are far too long and the effect of environment on human character - a favourite theme of the naturalists - is often unclear. The shallowness of those who seize political power is fairly well portrayed, though less skillfully than in Zola's later offerings. His main themes are all here but in embryonic form. He's groping his way. Fortunately, he didn't give up and battled on until he hit the jackpot with lucky number seven. Frankly, the book is only for hardened Zola nuts, who know where the man's heading. But it was intended to be an introduction to a cycle, and if you read it on those terms it's just about OK. A sort of boot camp. The Z-boy does show some promise here, and there's already a big improvement in book number two. So grit your teeth and stick with it.
8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. A thriller with depth By Karl Janssen In this book, Zola dives headlong into his fascination with "the human beast" by examining the psychology of murder. The novel is also a detailed portrait of the lives of railroad workers. The main character is Jacques Lantier, son of Gervaise Macquart (of L'Assomoir), a railroad engineer who works the line between Paris and Le Havre. Jacques feels a nagging compulsion to kill every woman he's attracted to. Fortunately, up to this point he has been able to control himself, but who knows how long he will be able to restrain the killer inside? Jacques is not the only character with murder on his mind; in fact, everyone in the book seems to be plotting to kill someone. Murder for love, murder for greed, murder for revenge are all represented. Zola has crammed so much violence and suspense into the plot, that on the surface he's written a fabulous piece of pulp fiction. Though the book pushes the boundaries of believability, it's also a fascinating study of human nature. The reader gains a window into the minds of the characters that reminds one of Poe's best tales. Underlying the criminal plot threads is a deeper level of social commentary, scientific inquiry, and philosophical debate. Zola shows how the rise of industrial technology contributes to the moral degeneration and dehumanization of the populace. He portrays Jacques' relationship with his engine as a symbiotic, almost romantic relationship. Meanwhile Jacques' Aunt Phasie and her family operate a crossing/switching station in the middle of nowhere, where their only interaction with the outside world comes in split-second views of nameless passengers being carted off to unknown destinations. While the railroad provides speed and convenience, it also generates social isolation and anonymity. Fans of Zola or readers of classical literature in general will certainly enjoy this book. Even fans of contemporary suspense fiction should find it entertaining and thought-provoking.
