Reader's note

Add a vintage Penguin to your collection with this 1979 edition of Germinal by Emile Zola. Germinal was written by Zola (1840-1902) to draw attention once again to the misery prevailing among the poor in France during the Second Empire. The novel, which has now become a sociological document, depicts the grim struggle between capital and labour in a coalfield in northern France. Yet through the blackness of this picture, humanity is constantly apparent, and the final impression is one of compassion and hope for the future, not only of organized labour, but also of man. Just one of the many classic, collectible, vintage books available on our online used bookstore.
