Title : Three Tales - Gustave Flaubert - book
Summary :
A triple unity - both Trinity and triptych - Flaubert's "Three Tales" evoke a world where the divine presence is as if absent. Foreboding, but mysterious in "Hérodias"; scandalous and incomprehensible in "The Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller"; confused with superstition and reduced to simulacra in "A Simple Heart." An ironic epic of faith and holiness through the ages, the "Three Tales" question the divine Word and speak of its power, but also its degradation. They affirm, at the end of Flaubert's life, the strength of writing and literature - of the Word.
