📖 About this session

Despite the dramatic event title we will not be reading Zola's open letter titled J'accuse..! Instead we will turn to his short works of fiction. The stories we will be discussing are:

🐈‍⬛️ The Paradise of Cats at approximately 1,400 words published originally in 1874 in the short story collection called Stories For Ninon ( original title: Nouveaux Contes à Ninon)

🪦 The Death of Olivier Becaille at approximately 10,600 words published originally in 1891 as part of a collection of short stories titled Evenings at Médan (original title: Les Soirées de Médan)

After the discussion feel free to stick around, socialize, and make new friends. ☕
