ZOLA Émile (1840-1902).
L.A.S. "Émile Zola", Médan, October 22, 1883, to his "dear colleague" Robert CAZE| 2 pages in-8.
Beautiful literary letter.
He was unable to thank him earlier for his book [Les Filles. Le Martyre d'Annil, suivi de La Sortie d'Angèle (Bruxelles, Kistemaeckers, 1883)]: "First of all, work is crushing me at the moment| then I would have liked to read you entirely, before writing to you.

I find it quite remarkable, and prefer it to the first, of which, it's true, I've only read a third at most.

I don't want to side with our opponents in advising you to avoid all unnecessary brutality in future, but I must confess that I think exactly as they do. Finally, I'm delighted with your great success. I see you've shaken off the indifference of the critics, and I'm reading a lot of excellent articles. It is through you, the cadets, that the battle will be won once and for all"...
