  • Short-Story Masterpieces, Vol. 1: French

    J. Berg Esenwein

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Feb. 19, 2019)
    Excerpt from Short-Story Masterpieces, Vol. 1: FrenchA single example may serve to illustrate the application of these tests. Here, let us imagine, are two short-stories written in French and by Frenchmen. The one deals with a base-ball game, played in Hawaii. Its argot is that of the dia mond and its attitude is that of the frenzied fan. The tone and the Hawaiian background will furnish local-color enough. The second story has for its theme a tragic family schism caused by the struggle over clericalism in France. The attitude of the characters is typical of the contesting parties, the language is richly idio matic, and the local-color convincing. Of course it would require no wisdom to determine which was the French short-story and which merely the short-story in French.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
