In the novel "Ladies' Delight" (1883) by the world-renowned and ever-popular Émile Zola (1840–1902), the rise of modern retail trade is depicted with remarkable vividness, along with all the traps it skillfully sets for gullible customers in department stores. At the same time, it is a touching story of passionate, devoted, tender, shy, chaste, and fiercely proud love of a simple saleswoman from the province for the owner and director of a large and luxurious store, the prototype of which can still be admired today by visiting the Parisian department store “Printemps.” And, of course, both the backdrop and one of the main characters of the novel is Paris itself—its reconstruction, the farewell to the musty past, and the opening of the spaces of the future.
