| Summary | "Nantas" by Émile Zola is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Nantas, a young man from Marseille, who relocates to Paris with grand aspirations for wealth and greatness. He struggles with the harsh realities of life while grappling with poverty, ambition, and the complexities of social status. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Nantas, who occupies a humble room in Paris, filled with dreams of success. His background as the son of a bricklayer weighs on him as he faces relentless rejections in his pursuit of employment. Despite his physical strength and determination, he finds himself at a turning point, contemplating desperate measures as he languishes in despair. The narrative hints at an impending transformation as he meets Juffrouw Chuin, who proposes an unconventional arrangement involving marriage to a wealthy girl, setting the stage for Nantas's conflicted journey between ambition and morality.
