Le bonheur à cinq sous by René Boylesve

"Le bonheur à cinq sous" by René Boylesve is a collection of twenty-five short stories published in 1917. Set largely during and after World War I, these tales explore human nature through intimate moments: soldiers in trenches, families coping with loss, romantic misunderstandings, and unexpected acts of kindness. From blind veterans to matchmaking servants, from war widows to mischievous children, Boylesve captures the resilience, folly, and tenderness of ordinary people navigating extraordinary times. Each story reveals how life's small dramas continue even amid history's greatest upheavals. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
