The Dream by Emile Zola is a novel that explores the concept of desire and its consequences. The story follows the life of a young man named Francois who dreams of becoming a successful artist. He becomes infatuated with a beautiful woman named Gilberte and begins to pursue her relentlessly, even though she is already engaged to another man. As Francois becomes more and more obsessed with Gilberte, his desire for her consumes him and leads him down a dangerous path. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters who challenge his beliefs and force him to confront the consequences of his actions. Through Francois' journey, Zola examines the nature of desire and its impact on human behavior. The novel is a powerful exploration of the human psyche and the ways in which our desires can shape our lives.When she held her in her arms pressed against her breast, she felt that she was trembling. She almost seemed to avoid her usual evening kiss. Looking anxiously in her face, Hubertine read in her eyes the feverish expectation connected with the hoped-for meeting. It was all so evident to her that she promised herself to keep a close watch.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
