Beschreibung

The Dream by Emile Zola is a late 19th-century novel that explores themes of abandonment, poverty, and the yearning for belonging. It follows the journey of Angelique, a young girl who, alone and destitute, finds herself in the small city of Beaumont during a harsh winter. The novel opens with Angelique seeking refuge beneath a cathedral portal, her physical and emotional frailty reflecting the despair she feels after fleeing an abusive household. As she grapples with fear and hopelessness, she is discovered by the kind-hearted Huberts, a family of artisans, who offer her shelter and care.The Huberts' compassion sets the stage for Angelique's gradual transformation. As the narrative unfolds, it reveals her painful past and the emotional scars she carries, while also hinting at the possibility of healing and redemption within this supportive new environment. The novel explores questions of identity, belonging, and the human capacity for love, offering a poignant reflection on the power of kindness to change lives and give hope in times of suffering.
