The novel The Ladies’ Paradise, written in 1883, in the colloquium of Zola’s literary success, deals with the competition, the conquest and the triumph of the trade of the “novelties”, which the Paris department stores inaugurated at the expense, of course, of the smaller stores; the book talks about the omnipotence of money and love, about the unprecedented progress that demolished and killed a part of French society.
