Messidor: Drame Lyrique En Quatre Actes Et Cinq Tableaux (1897) is a play written by the French author Emile Zola. The play is set in the French countryside and follows the lives of two sisters, Claire and Janine, who are struggling to survive in a world dominated by men. The play explores themes of love, jealousy, and betrayal as the sisters navigate their relationships with the men in their lives. The title of the play refers to the French Revolutionary calendar month of Messidor, which represents the harvest season. The play was first performed in Paris in 1897 and is considered to be one of Zola's lesser-known works. Despite this, it is still recognized as an important contribution to French literature and the tradition of naturalism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
