- Summary
- From influential French novelist Emile Zola, author of Germinal and Therese Raquin comes The Flood in a brand new translation, a collection of dark and surreal short stories. 'The Flood' and accompanying stories 'Blood' and 'Three Wars' address ideas of human fragility and the uncontrollable effect the power of nature can have on our lives. 'The Flood' centres around Louis Roubien. Now an old man, the head of a large family, his many years of hard work on the land have transformed him from a peasant farmer into a prosperous and satisfied freeholder, distributing his largesse among his relatives and the local community.
