"Dear Friend" is one of the most famous novels by the famous French writer Guy de Maupassant.
The red-haired Georges Durois is barely making ends meet in the city of entertainment - Paris. Suddenly, however, he notices that he is extremely popular with the wives of high-ranking officials. With no other talent than the art of charming hearts, Durois begins to climb the career ladder, showing surprising unscrupulousness...
The final chapters of the novel depict Georges Durois on the steps of the Church of the Magdalene, where he, the heir to a huge fortune, contemplates Paris from above.
Guy de Maupassant is the king of hidden psychology and unappreciative realism. His clean, short and austere style is a striking contrast to the works of Balzac and Zola.
