About this listen

Guy de Maupassant is revered for his naturalistic fiction, which brilliantly captures flesh-and-blood characters as it evokes the most telling details of everyday life. Considered one of the finest French novels ever written, Bel Ami follows journalist Georges Duroy and his increasing stature among the Paris elite. With an immense thirst for power, Georges is not above an almost gleeful use of wealthy mistresses to achieve his ends.

Interesting picture of Paris of the time- rather poorly read

Good story of the times and morality of the French society
The reader was irritating- no attempt to create a voice picture of the characters or their emotions
