First published in 1877, these three stories are dominated by questions of doubt, love, loneliness and religious experience, and together form a triumphant conclusion to Flaubert’s literary career. Includes 'The Dance of Death,' 'The Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller,' and 'A Simple Soul.'

Ví dụ

[This work may be called a prose poem. It is impregnated with the spirit of romanticism, which at the time of writing had a temporary but powerful hold on the mind of Gustave Flaubert.] DEATH SPEAKS At night, in winter, when the snow–flakes fall slowly from heaven like great white tears, I raise my voice; its resonance thrills the cypress trees and makes them bud anew.
