Title : Germinal - Émile Zola - book
Summary :
One of the great strikes of the 19th century recounted by a genius journalist who made it an indictment, a formidable "J'accuse" against capital, the novel of class struggle and working-class misery. A book of night, violence, and blood, but which leads to the hope of a new world when the hero, Étienne Lantier, leaving the mine "as a reasoning soldier of the revolution," feels a "black, vengeful army... whose germination would soon shatter the earth" growing around him. Germinal marks the awakening of the working world to the awareness of its rights, and it was to the constantly repeated cry of "Germinal! Germinal!" that the delegation of miners from Denain accompanied Zola's funeral procession through the streets of Paris.
