Madeleine Férat is an 1868 novel by the French writer Émile Zola. It was his fourth novel, written immediately after Thérèse Raquin, which had been his first commercial and artistic success. As was common with Zola novels, Madeleine Férat appeared initially in serial form (in L'Evénement Illustrée, from September 2 to October 20, 1868) under the title La Honte (The Shame/Disgrace). It was then published by Albert Lacroix as a single volume under its present title, and with a dedication to the painter Manet.
