In a dingy apartment on the Passage du Pont-Neuf in Paris ThA(c)rA]se Raquin is trapped in a loveless marriage to her sickly cousin Camille. The numbing tedium of her life is suddenly shattered when she embarks on a turbulent affair with her husbandas earthy friend Laurent but their animal passion for each other soon compels the lovers to commit a crime that will haunt them forever. "ThA(c)rA]se Raquin" caused a scandal when it appeared in 1867 and brought its twenty-seven-year-old author a notoriety that followed him throughout his life. Zolaas novel is not only an uninhibited portrayal of adultery madness and ghostly revenge but also a devastating exploration of the darkest aspects of human existence.
