About this listen

 Les contes de la Bécasse sont un recueil de dix-sept nouvelles, où l'auteur met en scène ses contemporains avec humour et férocité. Du cochon de Morin au Menuet, jouant sur différents registres, d'un milieu à un autre, Guy de Maupassant pose un regard parfois tendre, parfois ironique sur les grandeurs et les misères de son temps.© Caracolivres 2008 Anthologies & Short Stories Classics European Short Stories World Literature

The stories, of course, are excellent. Fabienne Prost is, on the whole, a good narrator. However, it would have greatly helped if there had been a clearer indication of when each story ended. The narrator rushes on, sometimes making it seem that the sentence has not even ended. And the shifts from one story to the next do not coincide perfectly with the chapter-breaks.

great stories - performance needed better editing
