QR code
"Trois contes" by Gustave Flaubert is a collection of three novellas published in April 1877. The work spans three distinct historical periods and took nearly thirty years to complete. It includes a tale of a devoted servant in nineteenth-century Normandy, a medieval legend of a saint's redemption, and the biblical story of Saint John the Baptist's execution. These stories represent Flaubert's final completed work of fiction, published three years before his death,
showcasing his mastery across different eras and narrative styles. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
