Maupassant'S Second Novel, Belami (1885) Is The Story Of A Ruthlessly Ambitious Young Man (Georges Duroy, Christened 'Belami' By His Female Admirers) Making It To The Top In Findesihcle Paris. It Is A Novel About Money, Sex, And Power, Set Against The Background Of The Politics Of The French Colonization Of North Africa. It Explores The Dynamics Of An Urban Society Uncomfortably Close To Our Own And Is A Devastating Satire Of The Sleaziness Of Contemporary Journalism.Belami Enjoys The Status Of An Authentic Record Of The Apotheosis Of Bourgeois Capitalism Under The Third Republic. But The Creative Tension Between Its Analysis Of Modern Behavior And Its Identifiably Late Nineteenthcentury Fabric Is One Of The Reasons Why Belami Remains One Of The Finest French Novels Of Its Time, As Well As Being Recognized As Maupassant'S Greatest Achievement As A Novelist.This New Translation Is Complemented By Fullest Introduction And Notes Of Any Edition Currently Available.About The Series: For Over 100 Years Oxford World'S Classics Has Made Available The Broadest Spectrum Of Literature From Around The Globe.
