Yvette
Guy de Maupassant
Yvette is an 1884 collection of short fiction by Guy de Maupassant. It contains the four-part title novella and seven further stories: The Return, The Abandoned One, The Colonel’s Ideas, A Walk, Mohammed-Fripouille, The Gamekeeper, and Berthe. Moving from fashionable Paris to the Norman coast, provincial towns, and memories of war, the collection examines love, loneliness, social convention, cruelty, and self-deception with Maupassant’s characteristic precision, irony, and unsentimental insight.
