Inhaltsangabe

In Three Short Works, three character-driven stories follow each protagonist as they attempt to navigate the trials and tribulations of life, death, love and loss. Flaubert presents a powerful combination of realism and romanticism that jumps off the page.

Three Short Works consists of three distinct stories. “The Dance of Death” centers on the plight of the Grim Reaper or Death, as he complains about his difficult job and unenviable title. In “The Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller,” a young man is cursed to murder his parents and attempts to outrun his fate. While “A Simple Soul” follows a hard-working maid who dedicates her life to a mistress and her two children.

Three Short Works is both enlightening and entertaining. Flaubert tackles vastly different stories from a unique point-of-view. Each selection is a poignant tale that charts the internal struggle of these disparate characters.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880) was a French novelist who was best known for exploring realism in his work. Hailing from an upper-class family, Flaubert was exposed to literature at an early age. He received a formal education at Lycée Pierre-Corneille, before venturing to Paris to study law. A serious illness forced him to change his career path, reigniting his passion for writing. He completed his first novella, November, in 1842, launching a decade-spanning career. His most notable work, Madame Bovary was published in 1856 and is considered a literary masterpiece.
