Zola worked first as a clerk and a sales assistant in a publishing house before turning to writing in 1866. He became the founder of the Naturalist movement in literature and published his first work Therese Raquin in 1867 and followed in 1868 with Madame Ferat. Thereafter he began the Rougon-Macquart series which would consist of 20 novels describing the history of a family through five generations. Included in this were Nana (1880) and Germinal (1885). He is also remembered as a defender of human rights, especially in the Dreyfus case, when in 1898, he published his famous J'accuse letter denouncing the French general staff.
