First published between 1870 and 1893, Émile Zola’s 20-book cycle chronicling four generations of the Rougon-Macquarts was a shocking exposé of the decadence, degradation and moral decay of 19th-century France. It included some of his greatest novels, among them his masterpiece, Germinal. These innovative, ambitious dramas, first broadcast on Radio 4 over 24 hours in 2015-16, are a radical reimagining of Zola’s classic series, introducing us to 104-year-old matriarch, Dide, imprisoned in an asylum in southern France. 

When women across the nation take an unprecedented stand—refusing traditional roles and withdrawing entirely from society—the world is thrown into chaos. The Strike of a Sex explores a transformative social upheaval through the eyes of Rodney Carford, a man bewildered by the collapse of everyday life in a city suddenly absent of women. With households in disarray, men struggling to adapt, and political reforms rapidly unfolding, the women demand one uncompromising principle: the irrevocable right to their own bodies and the freedom to choose motherhood on their own terms.
