Summary: "Hedelmällisyys: Romaani" by Émile Zola is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Mathieu Froment, a determined and hardworking man who juggles his family responsibilities with his demanding job at a factory while navigating the challenges of love and societal expectations. This work explores themes of fertility, societal pressures regarding family size, and the stark realities of life for working-class families.
