add to cart   close window

This article presents information on two books "The Unheroic Hero," by Raymond Giraud and "An Age of Fiction," by Germaine Brée and Margaret Guiton. These two books pretty well cover the "main stream" of the French novel. In the book "The Unheroic Hero," Raymond Giraud of Yale charts the rising tide of the bourgeoisie in France during the nineteenth century and its effect on the three great novelists of the period. The book "An Age of Fiction," deals with the inheritors of the great bourgeois revolution and of its writers. More quiet in their own class.
