One of 500 numbered sets signed by Robert Arnot this is number 77. With a critical preface by George Bourget of the French Academy and an introduction by Robert Arnot M.A. In near fine condition. Nineteenth century French author Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant is remembered as a master of the short story form and as a representative of the Naturalist school who depicted human lives and destinies and social forces in disillusioned and often pessimistic terms. Maupassant was a protégé of Gustave Flaubert and his stories are characterized by economy of style and efficient seemingly effortless dénouements. Many are set during the Franco-Prussian War of the 1870s describing the futility of war and the innocent civilians who caught up in events beyond their control are permanently changed by their experiences. Maupassant's second novel Bel-Ami chronicles journalist Georges Duroy's corrupt rise to power from a poor former cavalry NCO in France's African colonies to one of the most successful men in Paris most of which he achieves by manipulating a series of powerful intelligent and wealthy women. It has been adapted for film and television several times. M. Walter Dunne, Publisher hardcover
