Description
Zola's classic tale about Gervaise Macquart, featured in the first novel in the series, The Fortune of the Rougons, and her escape to Paris to work amongst the lower class in a laundry. The novel chronicles Gervaise's life, including marriage, opening her own business, and having children, and later the downward trajectory of her time in Paris.
