Description
Mysterious disappearances, domestic cases, noiseless, bloodless snuffings-out the law can look as deep as it likes, but when the crime itself goes unsuspected oh yes, there's many a murderer basking in the sun...
When Th r se Raquin is forced to marry the sickly Camille, she sees a bare life stretching out before her, leading every evening to the same cold bed and every morning to the same empty day. Escape comes in the form of her husband s friend, Laurent, and Th r se throws herself headlong into an affair. There seems only one obstacle to their happiness; Camille. They plot to be rid of him. But in destroying Camille they kill the very desire that connects them
First published in 1867, Th r se Raquin has lost none of its power to enthral. Adam Thorpe s unflinching translation brings Zola s dark and shocking masterwork to life.
