Download or read book Sentimental Education (French Classics Series) written by Gustave Flaubert. This book was released on 2017-06-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sentimental Education is an autobiographical novel. The story focuses on the romantic life of a young man at the time of the French Revolution of 1848. The novel describes the life of a young man (Frédéric Moreau) living through the revolution of 1848 and the founding of the Second French Empire, and his love for an older woman. Flaubert based many of the protagonist's experiences (including the romantic passion) on his own life. The novel's tone is by turns ironic and pessimistic; it occasionally lampoons French society. The main character, Frédéric, often gives himself to romantic flights of fancy. Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880) was an influential French writer who was perhaps the leading exponent of literary realism of his country. He is known especially for his debut novel, Madame Bovary and for his scrupulous devotion to his style and aesthetics. The celebrated short story writer Maupassant was a protégé of Flaubert.

Book Synopsis We Two by : Edna Lyall

Download or read book We Two written by Edna Lyall. This book was released on 2022-09-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'We Two' is a romance novel by Edna Lyall. The main character of this novel, Brian Osmond, a young doctor who had not been very long settled in the Bloomsbury regions, fell in love with Erica, whom he describes as his "little girl," though she was by no means little in the ordinary acceptation of the word, being at least sixteen, and rather tall for her years. But there was a sort of freshness and naivete and youthfulness about her that made him use that adjective. She usually carried a pile of books in a strap, so he conjectured that she must be coming from school, and, ever since he had first seen her, she had worn the same rough blue serge dress, and the same quaint little fur hat.
