Drie Vertellingen by Gustave Flaubert
"Drie Vertellingen" by Gustave Flaubert is a collection of three short stories published in 1877. The work explores profound themes through three distinct narratives: a devoted servant woman whose simple life conceals deep spiritual yearning, a nobleman cursed to fulfill a terrible prophecy despite his attempts to escape fate, and the biblical tale of John the Baptist's execution through political manipulation. Each story examines sacrifice, devotion, and redemption through characters whose lives
intertwine with forces beyond their control. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
