The Ladies' Paradise (Oxford World's Classics)

Product Information

What Thony, Arman, and Nadia are going through is a chaotic mess. However, Chris’ storyline still holds value. His guilt, the inclusion of Detective Flores, who, like most women on this show, is written way beyond the quality of any of the men, makes for something interesting to watch. Especially since JD knows about Chris’ truth, Chris may have an outlet outside his household. Very little is known throughout the show about Patterson's personal or family life until in Series 11, Episode 8, when his ex-wife, Maggie, appears on the island, who had left him years prior due to the demands of her profession as a journalist. It is revealed that although he has had other partners since, he has never remarried. Despite remaining separated for a long time, it appears they still have feelings for each other, and it is revealed at the end that her daughter, whom he never met until now, is also his daughter. When Colomban runs off with Clara, Geneviève becomes seriously ill and soon passes away. The small tradespeople—all dismal in their bankrupt state—gather for her funeral. Shortly after, Madame Baudu passes away. Robineau goes bankrupt, fails an attempt at suicide, and then retires to the country with his wife. Bourras goes bankrupt and Mouret demolishes his shop, expanding the Ladies’ Paradise into its space. Baudu and Bourras both refuse Denise’s offers of help. Denise is distraught by the suffering of the small businessowners but sees their demise as necessary for the progress of modern business. In the aftermath, the “investigation freak” Lady Love Dies is summoned from exile to find the culprit. This is the crime to end all crimes. The novel was adapted for the stage, with the title The Department Store, by Justin Fleming, and was premiered at The Old Fitzroy Theatre Sydney in 2005, directed by Christopher Hurrell.
