Alien Hearts
Author: De Maupassant, Guy; Author: Translator Howard, Richard
Paperback
New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1590170350

Alien Hearts is the story of three lovers bound by bitterness as much as by passion. Maupassants artist hero falls for a woman of the world, a dazzling beauty whose past with an abusive husband leads her to hold him like other men at arms length. He seeks solace with his doting mistress but remains racked by pointless infatuation with the femme fatale. Award-winning master translator Richard Howards new English version of this complex and brooding psychological novel reveals the final, unexpected flowering of the great French realists art. This is the first English translation of the French masterpiece in over 100 years. Maupassant wrote from the fullness of a compassionate heart. He is merciless and yet gentle with his mankind.... Joseph Conrad
