Alphonse Daudet
1,794 books198 followersStories of life of French writer Alphonse Daudet of the naturalist school in his native Provence include
Lettres de mon moulin
(1869).
Louis Marie Alphonse Daudet authored novels. He was the younger brother of Ernest Daudet. He was married to Julia Daudet and the father of Léon Daudet, Lucien Daudet and Edmée Daudet, all writers.
Family on both sides belonged to the bourgeoisie. Vincent Daudet, the father, manufactured silk, but misfortune and failure dogged the man through life. A boyhood depressed Alphonse amid much truancy had. He spent his days mainly at Lyon, left in 1856, and began life as a schoolteacher at Alès, Gard, in the south. The position proved intolerable. As Charles Dickens declared that all through his prosperous career, the miseries of his apprenticeship to the blacking business haunted him in dreams, so after Daudet left Alès, he woke with horror, thinking for months that he still dwelt among his unruly pupils.
On 1 November 1857, he abandoned teaching and took refuge with Ernest Daudet, his brother only some three years his senior, who tried "soberly" to make a living as a journalist in Paris. Alphonse took to writing, and a small volume, Les Amoureuses (1858), collected his poems and met with a fair reception. He obtained employment on Le Figaro, then under energetic editorship of Cartier de Villemessant, and wrote two or three plays; those interested in literature began to recognize him as possessing individuality and promise. Morny, all-powerful minister of Napoleon III, appointed Daudet, who held a post of his secretaries till death of Morny in 1865, and Morny showed Daudet no small kindness. Daudet put his foot on the road to fortune.

January 4, 2022Хубаво пише Доде, има прекрасен усет за пейзаж, описание, за реалност, за чувства и морал.
Историята сама по себе си е била лайт-мотив за епохата - напомня Зола и неговата "Дамско щастие", и също "Панаир на суетата" на Текери.
Цялата история и внушенията ѝ ми дойдоха малко дълги за история като тази, но простих, за да се насладя на изрази и метафори.

This late 1900s naturalism novel is in the mode of Zola et al. It has a typical, classic style drawing in the emotional inequity formed around a love triangle or more accurately square.
Risler a mature business inventor is in wallpaper factory with wealthy Georges Formont. They share a family as friends in the same apartment block, the Chebes and their young daughter Sidonie. Young brother Franz Risler is interested in Desiree the disabled daughter of old actor Delobelle but ultimately leaves the country so Georges marries is cousin Claire and Rilser Sidonie. Sidonie soon becomes the typical money grabbing, adulteress with Georges. business ruin is on the cards because Risler is blind to work.
This is a typical, well written example of French realism using many of the standard motifs of the genre - tragic death, the revelation of a letter, fraud to pay for a mistress. A good pot-boiler.

Ah oui. Quand la quatrième de couverture parle de tragédies, ça n'est vraiment pas une blague. Oufti.

A great story, interesting characters, and a wonderfully descriptive look at a bygone era. So French. J’adore.
