A gift book in a leather cover "Our heart" by Guy de Maupassant, in a case

Guy de Maupassant was and remains one of the most widely read and beloved French authors. Generations of readers have grown up on his books. Thanks to the novel "Dear Friend", they discovered the world of forbidden eroticism. The novel "Life", which L.N. Tolstoy rated as "perhaps the best French novel since Hugo's Les Miserables," told them about lost illusions.
The reader is offered one of the first novels written by Maupassant - "Our Heart", which struck the reader with acute observation and depth of penetration into the human soul.

This edition of the works has earned the reputation of being the best in the history of printing. The binding, decorated with gold and pancake embossing, a three-sided gold trim and a colored decorative backing give the publication a stylish and respectable look at the same time.
