Notoriety, faithfulness, gossip, love and style are Alphonse Daudet's subjects in these little-known stories about the strained relations between artists and their spouses. Daudet, known as the French Dickens, has an unerring eye for that eternal triangle—artist husband, model wife, and fickle fame.(Goodreads)

    THE NABOB
    ALPHONSE DAUDET
    In The Nabob Alphonse Daudet writes fluidly and somewhat romantically about a nouveau riche Frenchman (originally from the south of France, like Daudet) returning from Tunis and determined to buy his way into the upper reaches of Paris society. He is led from one mistake to another, humbled and humiliated. The underlying thesis would appear to be either a) country mouse comes t...

    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) ...
