«Un día de campo y otros cuentos galantes» is Guy de Maupassant's collection of short stories, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (232 pages).
The twenty-three stories in the book take place in the French capital and its surroundings, with the Seine as a recurring landscape. Love appears outside social norms: adultery, fleeting encounters and kept women. Nostalgia, the passage of time and the return to nature mingle with the portrait of idle ladies and frustrated bourgeois women.
