Claude’s Confession (1865) is a novel by French author Émile Zola. Written at night while Zola was employed at Hachette, Claude’s Confession proved scandalous upon publication and resulted in the loss of his job. Undeterred by the response to his literary debut, Zola took advantage of his newfound infamy in order to embark on a career as one of France’s foremost experimental writers. Intent on exploring taboo and the lives of people on the edge of society, Zola crafts a narrative capable of illuminating the human condition while humanizing those typically disdained by the literary elite. Born and raised in Provence, Claude is shocked to find that the Paris of legend is a city mired in poverty, decay, and loneliness. As he struggles to make ends meet in order to pay for his tiny apartment, he takes notice of a young woman who lives in the same building as him. Although he knows she is a prostitute, his feelings for him grow stronger than the impulse to look down on her way of life. After months of silent longing, he opens his door to find her standing there, desperate for help after being evicted. Despite his limited income, he welcomes her inside, and their relationship soon develops into a passionate romance. Claude’s Confession is a story of forbidden love, fading hope, and the false promise of modern life. Written at the very beginning of Zola’s career, it shows the innerworkings of a young mind interested in subjects too often ignored by writers, a mind whose guiding principle is truth and truth alone. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Émile Zola’s Claude’s Confession is a classic work of French literature reimagined for modern readers.

The Zulu people have colourful names for their children, which often come to resemble the nature of the child, and so it was with fifteen-year-old Thulani. His name meant Be Still in Zulu and his parents often wished he were, for Thulani was a lively boy who loved telling wild tales, which bestowed on him the nickname Cloud Eater. This perfectly described the boy's dreamy nature, his stories were gossamer as the clouds themselves, yet the stories always had meaning. The Zulu paid heed to the tales of Thulani, for they kept in their memory, what once had been for all men.In Zulu culture there are strict rules on upbringing, children are taught to keep silent around the adults, yet the elders loved listening to tales of the Cloud Eater. A common sight was a group of men gathered around, while Thulani recounted his latest adventure, the boy was in fact something of a Zulu seer. Many of his fables were part of African folklore, while others will become part of folklore, the Eaters of Clouds they are called in Africa. Whimsical philosophers who are the lifeblood of African culture, because history and traditions are passed on orally in Africa.The tales of Thulani point the way to a modern South African fable at the end of the book, an allegory where animals are humanised and given employment, discover what happens if the Foxy Editor plays the music and the Government Elephants do the dancing? What will transpire if Foxes learned how to write, and controlled all animals through newspapers, under pretension of protecting animal rights. They threw out the humanitarian African philosophy of Ubuntu, and replaced it with a neoliberal system that idolized individuals, namely the individual media controller Foxes.
