Part of Emile Zola's multigenerational Rougon-Macquart saga, The Belly of Paris is the story of Florent Quenu, a wrongly accused man who escapes imprisonment on Devil's Island. Returning to his native Paris, Florent finds a city he barely recognizes, with its working classes displaced to make way for broad boulevards and bourgeois flats. Living with his brother's family in the newly rebuilt Les Halles market, Florent is soon caught up in a dangerous maelstrom of food and politics. Amid intrigue among the market's sellers-the fishmonger, the charcuti�re, the fruit girl, and the cheese vendor-and the glorious culinary bounty of their labors, we see the dramatic difference between "fat and thin" (the rich and the poor) and how the widening gulf between them strains a city to the breaking point.

The Belly of Paris (Le Ventre de Paris) is the third novel in Émile Zola's twenty-volume series Les Rougon-Macquart, first published in 1873. It is a novel of the teeming life which surrounds the great central markets of Paris. The book was originally translated into English by Henry Vizetelly and published in 1888 under the title Fat and Thin. After Vizetelly's imprisonment for obscene libel the novel was one of those revised and expurgated by his son, Ernest Alfred Vizetelly. The heroine is Lisa Quenu, a daughter of Antoine Macquart. She has become prosperous, and with prosperity her selfishness has increased. Her brother-in-law Florent had escaped from penal servitude in Cayenne and lived for a short time in her house, but she became tired of his presence and ultimately denounced him to the police. Émile Zola (1840 – 1902) was a French writer, the most important exemplar of the literary school of naturalism and an important contributor to the development of theatrical naturalism. He was a major figure in the political liberalization of France.

Excerpt from The Fat and the Thin: Le Ventre De Paris The Paris markets form such a world of their own, and teem at certain hours of the day and night with such exuberance of life, that it was only natural they should attract the attention of a novelist like M. Zola, who, to use his own words, delights in any subject in which vast masses of people can be shown in motion.' Mr. Sherard tells us' that the idea of 'le Ventre de Paris' first occurred to M. Zola in 1872, when he used continually to take his friend Paul Alexis for a ramble through the Halles. I have in my possession, however, an article written by M. Zola some five or six years before that time, and in this one can already detect the germ of the present work; just as the motif of another of M. Zola's novels, La J oie de Vivre, ' can be traced to a short story written for a Russian review. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

We can recommend Mr. Vizetelly's translation of "Le Ventre de Paris" as a very satisfactory rendering of a remarkable book. Mr. Vizetelly, while suppressing the grossness which makes the original obnoxious to English readers, has preserved the passion, the humour, and the terrible insight of the original. Zola has never drawn a picture more pitilessly faithful to the lower side of our common humanity than this is... A drama which reads like a page torn out of the book of life itself.' - SPEAKER. 'Intensely realistic... Some of the characters are drawn with a master hand, and the two rival beauties will bear comparison with any of the portraits in the author's literary gallery.' - GLASGOW HERALD. 'M. Zola seems equally at home with all phases of life in Paris, and nothing could be more striking and realistic than his story of existence in and around those gigantic Central Markets of the gay city... "The Fat and the Thin" must be regarded as a life-like and vigorous work.' -PUBLIC OPINION. 'The book contains some of the most poetical and idyllic scenes M. Zola has ever written. The adventures of Cadine are very beauti- fully told.' -NORFOLK STANDARD. 'One of the most striking of Zola's novels... The story puts into a book the life of the great markets of Paris, familiar to tourists as one of the sights of the town... If not the best of its author's novels, it is at least a fine and characteristic work, and the appearance of so excellent a version will be welcome to a great number of English readers.'- SCOTSMAN.

"THE FAT AND THE THIN," or, to use the French title, "Le Ventre de Paris," is a story of life in and around those vast Central Markets which form a distinctive feature of modern Paris. Even the reader who has never crossed the Channel must have heard of the Parisian Halles, for much has been written about them, not only in English books on the French metropolis, but also in English newspapers, magazines, and reviews; so that few, I fancy, will commence the perusal of the present volume without having, at all events, some knowledge of its subject matter. The Paris markets form such a world of their own, and teem at certain hours of the day and night with such exuberance of life, that it was only natural they should attract the attention of a novelist like M. Zola, who, to use his own words, delights "in any subject in which vast masses of people can be shown in motion." Mr. Sherard tells us[*] that the idea of "Le Ventre de Paris" first occurred to M. Zola in 1872, when he used continually to take his friend Paul Alexis for a ramble through the Halles. I have in my possession, however, an article written by M. Zola some five or six years before that time, and in this one can already detect the germ of the present work; just as the motif of another of M. Zola's novels, "La Joie de Vivre," can be traced to a short story written for a Russian review.
