But Nana could also ‘se pavonne’ like a granddame. And another model, Valtesse de la Bigne (1848-1910) is portrayed in such elegant and distinguished manner by Henri Gervex Wikipedia articles incorporating a citation from the 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica with Wikisource reference The novel was an immediate success. Le Voltaire, the French newspaper that was planning to publish it in installments beginning in October 1879, launched a gigantic advertising campaign, raising the curiosity of the reading public to a fever pitch. When Charpentier finally published Nana in book form in February 1880, the first edition of 55,000 copies was sold out in one day. Flaubert and Edmond de Goncourt were full of praise for Nana. On the other hand, a part of the public and some critics reacted to the book with outrage, which may have contributed to its popularity. August, Marilyn (14 December 2000). "IN LATER YEARS, ZOLA SAW WORLD THROUGH A CAMERA". Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. p.F-8 – via ProQuest. Though more complex than The Fat and the Thin, this is my least favorite Zola so far (I've read three others), mostly because I don't care for descriptions of luxury and opulence, though I understand their purpose here. The lives of the aristocratic men worshiping at the altar of this theatrical and concupiscent Venus were not only uninteresting to me, but most of them blended together, which I'm sure was intentional but made the story repetitive.

The velvet drapes, flesh-coloured like the tea-rose pink sky on fine evenings when Venus is gleaming against the soft glow of the setting sun on the horizon, were dotted with the bright stars of silver buttons, while the barley-sugar gilt mouldings descending from each corner and the gold lace round the central panels seemed like darting flames, tresses of red hair floating loose, half-veiling the stark simplicity of the room and emphasizing its voluptuous cool tints.

Just as the crowd is about to dismiss her performance as terrible, young Georges Hugon shouts: "Very stylish!" From then on, she owns the audience.

I think I'm probably a bit tired of the spectre of the vagina dentata myth, and my reaction (admittedly a visceral one) can probably be explained in light of my exasperation with it. También disfruté del contexto histórico, básicamente nos encontramos al final del Segundo Imperio francés, y empezamos a sentir las tensiones que desencadenarían su caída, así como las últimas líneas de la novela, —¡A Berlín! ¡A Berlín! ¡A Berlín!, las cuales apuntan al inicio de La guerra franco-prusiana. En pocas palabras, históricamente hablando es un deleite, aunque debo decir que son apenas unos cuantos detalles que pasan al fondo, ya que el autor no se detiene mucho en ello, sino que más bien se centra totalmente en su protagonista. Blame her if you dare for the life she chose. Blame her if you dare for the lovers she humiliated. Blame her if you dare for the money she wanted and the pain she caused. If she grew up today, she would be a victim from the beginning, entitled to support and pity. In 19th century Paris, she had nothing but what she managed to grab for herself. Cold and manipulative? Yes! But how could she be otherwise, growing up as a child in the abusive home of Gervaise and Coupeau? She had no education to speak of, no social standing, no caring and loving childhood memories, no role models except for the hypocritical Paris society she saw - which was ruled by the sexual desires of men. She never had a chance to enter the official world, and had to provide for herself. György Lukács, Studies in European Realism.

Pues bien, señoras y señores lectores, en la novela encontrarán mucho, mucho, pero que mucho sexo: sexo comprado, sexo negado, sexo anhelado, sexo por venganza, sexo conquistado, sexo tierno, sexo exigido, sexo por lástima, sexo rabioso, sexo dadivoso, sexo reconfortante, sexo suplicado… hay hasta sexo por amor. Nada explícito, que nadie se me asuste, pero con buen pie para la imaginación del lector, que nadie se me desilusione tampoco.Watt, Peter (21 September 2017). "Zola's bicycle women" (blog).
