Émile Zola

I ACCUSE…!

Open Letter to the President of the French Republic

By Émile Zola

Read Letter to Félix Faure

I have but one passion, the search for light, in the name of humanity which has suffered so much and is entitled to happiness. My fiery protest is simply the cry of my very soul.

Let them dare, then, to bring me before a court of law and investigate in the full light of day!

I am waiting.

With my deepest respect, Mr President.

Émile Zola
