Marriage is an ancient union based upon mutual trust, love, and commitment. Having sworn to honor their vows and face the struggles of life together, couples enter into the sanctity of a committed relationship with the expectation that they will always be inseparable...but combining the lives of two individuals into one is not always an easy process. As the ink on their oaths begins to fade, spouses incapable of revealing their innermost secrets begin struggling to control their own inner demons, and once they initiate the process of leading private lives, serious, sometimes fatal flaws buried in the depths of their bond will eventually begin to surface. Gregory and Alexandria Coleman both lead highly successful professional lives, but their inability to communicate openly and honestly with each other about their secret yearnings has become a ravenous beast that is gnawing away at the bonds of their marriage.

The Belly of Paris (Le Ventre de Paris) is the third novel in Émile Zola's twenty-volume series Les Rougon-Macquart, first published in 1873. It is a novel of the teeming life which surrounds the great central markets of Paris. The book was originally translated into English by Henry Vizetelly and published in 1888 under the title Fat and Thin. After Vizetelly's imprisonment for obscene libel the novel was one of those revised and expurgated by his son, Ernest Alfred Vizetelly. The heroine is Lisa Quenu, a daughter of Antoine Macquart. She has become prosperous, and with prosperity her selfishness has increased. Her brother-in-law Florent had escaped from penal servitude in Cayenne and lived for a short time in her house, but she became tired of his presence and ultimately denounced him to the police. Émile Zola (1840 – 1902) was a French writer, the most important exemplar of the literary school of naturalism and an important contributor to the development of theatrical naturalism. He was a major figure in the political liberalization of France.
