Le Ventre de Paris est un roman écrit par Émile Zola et publié en 1873. L’action se passe pour l’essentiel aux Halles centrales de Paris, construites par Victor Baltard entre 1854 et 1870. Zola en fait dans son roman une sorte de monstre, comme le seront plus tard le grand magasin dans Au Bonheur des Dames, l’alambic dans l'Assommoir ou la locomotive dans la Bête humaine. Les membres de la famille des Rougon-Macquart ne jouent pas un rôle essentiel dans le roman : Lisa Macquart, la sœur de Gervaise (voir l'Assommoir), mariée à un nommé Quenu, y est charcutière ; on voit aussi apparaître sa fille, Pauline Quenu, qui sera l’héroïne de La Joie de vivre, et surtout Claude Lantier, son neveu, jeune peintre, futur héros du roman l'Œuvre. Le personnage principal est Florent, le demi-frère de Quenu. Arrêté par erreur à la suite du coup d'État du 2 décembre 1851, il a été déporté au bagne de Cayenne en Guyane, dont il a réussi à s’évader. Il arrive à Paris en 1858, et obtient une place d’inspecteur au pavillon de la marée, à l’intérieur des Halles. On y rencontre des personnages variés tels que Lisa, charcutière, femme de Quenu (le demi-frère de Florent), et la fille aînée des Méhudin, la belle Normande, rivale de Lisa, qui tient une poissonnerie. Zola développe le thème de la rivalité entre "gras" et "maigres" tout au long du roman. La belle Normande, une grasse, entend se servir de Florent, un maigre, pour monter Lisa, grasse également, contre lui. Après un vif différend qui les a opposés à cause de la fraîcheur douteuse d'un de ses poissons, la belle Normande acquiert la sympathie de Florent par l'intermédiaire de Muche, son jeune fils, pour qui il devient une sorte de précepteur. Elle voit même en lui un mari potentiel, car héritier, ainsi que son frère le charcutier, de leur oncle Gradelle.

About the Author:
?mile Zola was a French writer who is recognized as an exemplar of literary naturalism and for his contributions to the development of theatrical naturalism. Zola s best-known literary works include the twenty-volume Les Rougon-Macquart, an epic work that examined the influences of violence, alcohol and prostitution on French society through the experiences of two families, the Rougons and the Macquarts. Other remarkable works by Zola include Contes ? Ninon, Les Myst?res de Marseille, and Th?r?se Raquin.

In addition to his literary contributions, Zola played a key role in the Dreyfus Affair of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. His newspaper article J Accuse accused the highest levels of the French military and government of obstruction of justice and anti-semitism, for which he was convicted of libel in 1898. After a brief period of exile in England, Zola returned to France where he died in 1902. ?mile Zola is buried in the Panth?on alongside other esteemed literary figures Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.
