The Ladies’ Paradise by Emile Zola

Monday 11th October 2010

Venue
The Bookshop, 9 High Street, Ely, CB7 4LJ
Start Time
7.30pm

An often overlooked, but fascinating instalment in Zola’s great series of novels anatomizing French society in the mid-Nineteenth Century. Set in and around a fashionable Parisian department store, the book offers a remarkably shrewd insight into the changing worlds of work, leisure and middle-class morality, enlivened by Zola’s characteristic eye for detail.
