It plunges the reader into the essential dynamics of the political: the rivalries, the scheming, thejockeying for position, the ups and downs, the play of interests, the lobbying and gossip, the patronage and string-pulling, the bribery and blackmail, and, especially, the manipulation of language for political purposes.The novel's themes-especially its treatment of political discourse-have remarkable contemporaryresonance.His Excellency Eugène Rougon is about politics everywhere.
