About the Book:

Nana is a brilliant translation of Émile Zola's famous novel, offering a shining gem from the treasure trove of Bengali literature's past. Set against the backdrop of a decaying and fractured medieval French society, the novel serves as a mirror reflecting the moral and social decay of the time.

Zola's Nana is a poignant narrative about the life of a beautiful but tragic woman, Nana, whose rise to fame as an actress leads her through the corrupt and debauched upper echelons of society. The novel explores themes of power, sex, and social decay, providing a sharp critique of the French bourgeoisie.

Through the expert translation of Indubhushan Das, this Bengali version brings the timeless classic to a new audience, capturing the essence of Zola's exploration of human nature and societal flaws. Nana is a must-read for those interested in classic literature, social criticism, and the intricacies of human relationships in times of moral crisis.
