View Rights PortalÉmile Zola wurde am 2. April 1840 als Sohn eines italienischen Ingenieurs in Paris geboren und wuchs in Aix-en-Provence auf. Nachdem er das Abitur nicht bestanden hatte, war er zunächst als Hilfsarbeiter in einem Hafen tätig, gelangte schließlich aber zu einer Anstellung im Verlag Hachette. Ab 1865 konnte er als Journalist und Kunstkritiker Fuß fassen. Im Zuge der Affäre Alfred Dreyfus verfaßte er einen offenen Brief gegen dessen Verurteilung und mußte in der Folge für ein Jahr ins Exil nach England gehen. Zola gilt mit seinem Hauptwerk, dem zwanzigbändigen Romanzyklus Les Rougon-Macquart, als bedeutendster europäischer Autor des Naturalismus. Er starb am 29. September 1902.
A rich and revealing examination of the legendary pop duo Soft Cell. Soft Cell are not your average pop band. Marc Almond and Dave Ball may be best known for the string of hits they released in 1981, but the powerful first phase of their collaboration embraced a staggering array of sounds, influences and innovations that would change the face of music to come. In Bedsit land, Patrick Clarke plunges into the archives and interviews more than sixty contributors, including the band members themselves, to follow Soft Cell through the many strange and sprawling worlds that shaped their extraordinary career. They lead him from the faded camp glamour of the British seaside to the dizzying thrills of the New York club scene. From transgressive student performance art to the sleaze and squalor of pre-gentrified Soho. From the glitz of British showbiz to the drug-addled chaos of post-Franco Spain. He emerges on the other side with the most in-depth, innovative and entertaining account of the duo ever written.
