A Love Story by Mile Zola

This book is part of the TREDITION CLASICS series. The creators of this series are united by passion for literature and driven by the intention of making all public domain books available in printed format again - worldwide. At tredition we believe that a great book never goes out of style. Several mostly non-profit literature projects provide content to tredition. To support their good work, tredition donates a portion of the proceeds from each sold copy. As a reader of a TREDITION CLASICS book, you support our mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion.
A Love Story was such a joy to read.. This is the type of book I would like to leisurely read while sitting in a Paris café, maybe that is how I will re-read A Love Story. * Michael Kitto, Knowledge Lost *
There's so much to love and admire about this novel, which has rarely appeared in an English translation. * Harriet Devine, Shiny New Books *
