Une Vie (translated as A Woman’s Life) is one of Guy de Maupassant’s most poignant novels, exploring the life of Jeanne, a young woman of the French aristocracy, as she experiences love, disappointment, and the harsh realities of life. Through Jeanne’s story, Maupassant captures the emotional turbulence of a woman constrained by societal expectations in 19th-century France. The accompanying short stories in this collection further showcase Maupassant’s gift for exploring human nature with realism, irony, and psychological depth, cementing his legacy as one of France’s greatest short story writers.Also included in this volume are 'Hautot Senior and Hautot Junior,' 'Little Louise Roque,' and 8 more tales.
