    TARTARIN OF TARASCON
    ALPHONSE DAUDET
    The Provençal town of Tarascon is so enthusiastic about hunting that no game lives anywhere near it, and its inhabitants resort to telling hunting stories and throwing their own caps in the air to shoot at them. Tartarin, a plump middle-aged man, is the chief "cap-hunter", but following his enthusiastic reaction to seeing an Atlas lion in a travelling menagerie, the over-imagin...

    THE NABOB
    ALPHONSE DAUDET

He is led from one mistake to another, humbled and humiliated. The underlying thesis would appear to be either a) country mouse comes t...

    ALPHONSE DAUDET

    TARTARIN ON THE ALPS
    ALPHONSE DAUDET
    The story was maybe better than the original "Tartarin of Tarascon". As usual, Tartarin doesn't have a clue what's happening in the world around him, falls pathetically in love, and bumbles through. (Goodreads) ...

    THE IMMORTAL
    ALPHONSE DAUDET

    EN LA TIERRA DEL DOLOR
    DAUDET ALPHONSE / BARNES, JULIAN
    Poco después de llegar a París en 1858, a los diecisiete años, Alphonse Daudet contrajo la sífilis. Los primeros síntomas de la enfermedad se manifestaron en 1861, y a partir de 1884, siendo Daudet ya una celebridad, se hicieron cada vez más graves. Ese año empezó a tomar notas sobre sus sufrimientos y aprensiones, sobre los tratamientos que seguía y los balnearios que visitaba...
