With Zola in England (Dodo Press)
Bok av Ernest Alfred Vizetelly
Ernest Alfred Vizetelly (1853-1922) was the son of the English publisher Henry Vizetelly. He published a mutilated version of Emile Zola's book entitled The Fat and the Thin in 1896. "All that I claim for this little book, reprinted from the columns of 'The Evening News, ' is the quality of frankness. I do not desire to check or disarm criticism, but I have a right to point out that I have performed my work rapidly and have largely subordinated certain literary considerations to a desire to write my story naturally and simply, in much the same way as I should have told it in conversation with a friend. Very rarely, I think, have I departed from this rule."
