The works of Guy de Maupassant, Vol. 5
Publisher Description
In this book life clearly, and he undertakes to describe it as he sees it, in concise and vigorous language without the gloominess of Zola, over whom he claims one great advantage, that of possessing a rich sense of humor, and a large share of the old Gallic wit. His pessimism, indeed, is inexorable, and he pushes the misfortune, or more often the degradation, of his characters to its extreme logical conclusion.
