Mademoiselle Fifi (Ldp Classiques)
Low stock: 1 left
Maupassant fut le meilleur élève de Flaubert. Ils étaient, tous deux, normands et réalistes. Les nouvelles de Maupassant : des instantanés ou des petits morceaux de vie inoubliables.
Mademoiselle Fifi est, en réalité, un jeune officier prussien, occupant la France en 1870, blond, à la taille fine, fier et brutal, surnommé ainsi parce qu’il méprise tout et tout le monde et répète sans cesse : « Fi, fi donc ». Il trouvera plus fort que lui.
Provinciales inassouvies, amants surpris, prostituées, femmes de notaires, nobles ruinés, amis pêcheurs, chacun a son portrait juste et émouvant.
Ces nouvelles sont brèves, ainsi l’exigeait la presse quotidienne qui les publiait avec succès. Brèves mais exprimant l’essentiel. Chaque personnage, à un moment décisif,
touche le fond et reste marqué à jamais. Maupassant affirmait appartenir à la famille des écorchés. « J’ai froid de la solitude de la vie », disait-il.

Condition Descriptions
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
