| Summary | "Nana" by Émile Zola is a novel written during the late 19th century, specifically set in Paris under the Second Empire. The story revolves around the character of Nana, a seductive and ambitious actress who captures the attention of society, stirring both admiration and scandal as she navigates a world filled with desire and decadence. At the start of the narrative, the scene is set in the theater of Variétés, where a mix of excited patrons eagerly anticipate the premiere of the play "La Blonde Vénus," starring the enigmatic Nana. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation, as characters converse about Nana's burgeoning fame. As the story unfolds, glimpses of Nana's impactful presence and interactions reveal her allure. The opening highlights not just the public's curiosity about her but also hints at her complex relationships with the various characters surrounding her, laying the groundwork for a tale steeped in themes of sexuality, power, and societal critique.
