The Great Modern French Stories: A Chronological Anthology is a collection of short stories written by some of the most prominent French authors of the 20th century. Edited by Willard Huntington Wright, the anthology features stories that span the years from 1870 to 1930, providing readers with a comprehensive overview of the evolution of French literature during this period.The book is organized chronologically, beginning with stories by Emile Zola and Guy de Maupassant, two of the most influential writers of the late 19th century. The anthology then moves on to stories by authors such as Marcel Proust, Colette, and Andre Gide, all of whom played a significant role in shaping French literature during the early 20th century.The stories in the anthology cover a wide range of themes and styles, from the naturalism of Zola and Maupassant to the more experimental and avant-garde writing of authors like Proust and Gide. Some of the stories are dark and brooding, while others are light and humorous. Many of the stories deal with themes of love, loss, and the human condition, and they offer a fascinating glimpse into the cultural and social landscape of France during this period.Overall, The Great Modern French Stories: A Chronological Anthology is an essential read for anyone interested in French literature, and it provides a valuable resource for students and scholars of literature, history, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
