{"product_id":"bel-ami-guy-de-maupassant-9789362056214","title":"Bel-Ami","description":"Bel-Ami is the second novel by French author Guy de Maupassant, published in 1885; an English translation titled \"\"Bel Ami, or, The History of a Scoundrel: A Novel\"\" first appeared in 1903. The story chronicles Georges Duroy's corrupt rise to power. Georges, a down-and-out journalist, comes from a humble background yet concocts a spectacular rise to the top of Parisian society, most of which he achieves by manipulating a series of powerful, intelligent, and wealthy mistresses. \"Bel Ami\" is not only a vivid portrait of a glamorously crooked and long-vanished Paris, but also a strikingly modern depiction of the destructiveness of unconstrained Ambition, Sex and power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Guy de Maupassant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9362056216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789362056214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sanage Publishing House Llp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.36d","brand":"Guy de Maupassant","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48588043616511,"sku":"9789362056214","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bel-ami-guy-de-maupassant-9789362056214","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
