5.0

A highly entertaining and diverse collection of French short stories, which I believe to represent the themes and techniques explored in French literature in the 20th century, I enjoyed these stories for both their high literary value and creativity, their moral and social allusions about 20th century France and the diverse texture of the writing styles I experienced in the collection. Above all, reading this is really helpful for a French student to both gain new vocabulary and begin to understand French syntax and constructions in a literary context.
