Nana is a novel written by Emile Zola, first published in 1880. It is a story of a young woman named Nana who rises from poverty to become a famous actress and courtesan in Paris during the Second Empire. The novel explores the themes of love, sex, money, power, and corruption in the society of the time. Nana's beauty and charm attract many men, including wealthy aristocrats and artists, but her insatiable desire for luxury and pleasure leads her to ruin. The novel also portrays the lives of other characters, such as Nana's lovers, friends, and rivals, who are affected by her actions and decisions. Zola's realistic and detailed descriptions of the social and cultural aspects of Parisian life in the 19th century, as well as his psychological insights into the characters, make Nana a classic of French literature and a masterpiece of naturalism.Ever since this morning people have been dreeing me with Nana. I've met more than twenty people, and it's Nana here and Nana there! What do I know? Am I acquainted with all the light ladies in Paris? Nana is an invention of Bordenave's! It must be a fine one!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
