Part 2 — MODERN MARRIAGE

Steven T. (Steven Tracy) Byington translation

BY Emile Zola TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY BENJ. R. TUCKER

In this story Zola takes four typical marriages,—one from the nobility, one from the bourgeoisie, one from the petite bourgeoisie, and one from the working people,—and describes, with all the power of his wondrous art, how each originates, by what motive each is inspired, how each is consummated, and how each results.
