5W 1978 Gustave Flaubert, Easton Press Edition
Notes
Three Tales by Gustave Flaubert, published in 1877, is a collection of three short stories that showcase the author's mastery of style and narrative. The stories—"A Simple Heart," "The Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller," and "Herodias"—each explore different themes and settings.
- "A Simple Heart" tells the poignant story of a humble servant named Félicité, whose life is marked by quiet devotion and loss.
- "The Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller" is a medieval tale about a nobleman who becomes a saint after a life of violence and redemption.
- "Herodias" retells the biblical story of Salome and the beheading of John the Baptist, with rich historical and symbolic detail.
Together, these tales illustrate Flaubert's range as a writer, blending realism, history, and moral reflection.
