La Faute de l’Abbé Mouret was first published in 1875 and has been translated as The Abbé Mouret’s Sin, Abbé Mouret’s Transgression, The Sin of Father Mouret. More details are on the translations page.
The painting titled The Death of Albine by John Collier is based on a scene from the book.

The pink Livre de Poche is gorgeous. I like The Sin of Father Mouret from the Zola Society. It looks very moody.
