|  | L' Assommoir by Emile Zola, Jacques Dubois, Margaret Mauldon, Nicholas White, Robert Lethbridge
One of the most important examples of the naturalist style and school, this work depicts working-class life in the slums of Paris. When it was first serialized in a newspaper in 1876, it was almost universally criticized not only for its lowlife characters but for the liberties Zola took with the French language.
