Provides a detailed portrait of provincial nineteenth-century life. Adhering to a naturalist approach, this book eschews many of the characteristics of the author's other novels of the "Rougon-Macquart" cycle - such as a pronounced polemical agenda or a gritty subject matter - offering instead a lyrical tale of love and innocence.
