Dear friend. Life. Novels, novels

Guy de Maupassant was and remains one of the most read and favorite French authors. Many generations of readers discovered the world of forbidden erotica thanks to his works. “Dear friend”, where the story of the career of an ordinary seducer and the burner of life Georges Durua, developing in the spirit of an adventurous novel, has become a symbolic reflection of the spiritual impoverishment of the hero and society. The interest of the novel is best indicated by the interest of the cinema: there are at least one and a half dozen of its adaptations. The novel “Life”, which L. N. Tolstoy appreciated as “perhaps the best French romance since the time of the“ outcast ”Hugo, tells about lost illusions. An example of unsurpassed psychologism and literary skill is represented by the numerous novels of Maupassant, starting with the famous “puffy”. The writer"s creativity is inherent in strict internal artistic logic, compression, accuracy and clarity of the “truly French language” (A. France)
