What reading level is Why Read the Classics? book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Gustave Flaubert, Trois Contes Trois Contes is entitled Tre racconti in Italian, and we could not call them anything else, but the term conte (as opposed to récit or nouvelle) underlines the link with oral narrative, with the marvellous and naive, in short with the folktale. This connotation applies to all three tales: not just to The Legend of St Julien the Hospitaller which is one of the first examples of a modern writer adopting the ‘primitive’ taste of medieval and popular art, and to Hérodi...as, which is a historical reconstruction that is erudite, visionary and aesthetically appealing, but also to Un Coeur Simple (A Simple Heart), where contemporary daily reality is experienced by a poor serving woman of simple spirit.
The three stories of Trois Contes are almost a distillation of all of Flaubert, and since they can be read in an evening I strongly recommend them to all those who want to pay homage, swift though it may be, to the sage of Croisset on the occasion of his centenary.
