Description

This book contains now several HTML tables of contents that will make reading a real pleasure!"A Simple Heart", also called Un cœur simple or Le perroquet in French, is a story about a servant girl named Felicité.

After her one and only love Théodore purportedly marries a well-to-do woman to avoid conscription, Felicité quits the farm she works on and heads for Pont-l'Évèque where she immediately picks up work in a widow's house as a servant.

She is very loyal, and easily lends her affections to the two children of her mistress, Mme Aubain.

She gives entirely to others, and although many take advantage of her she is unaffected.

She is the epitome of a selfless character, and Flaubert shows how true altruism – the reality of being truly selfless – is the reward in itself.

Whatever comes her way she is able to deal with it.
