Les deux romanciers by René Boylesve
"Les deux romanciers" by René Boylesve is a collection of six short stories published in 1926 after the author's death. The title story explores two contrasting novelist friends—one optimistic and seemingly superficial, the other pessimistic and reflective—whose opposing temperaments shape their literary works. The collection examines themes of love, marriage, deception, and modern life through varied narratives, including tales of adultery, technological obsession, social convention, and family relationships. These stories, written between
1903 and 1925, offer glimpses into early twentieth-century French society and human nature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
