| Summary | "Œuvres complètes de Guy de Maupassant - volume 10" by Guy de Maupassant is a collection of literary works written in the late 19th century. This particular volume includes the novella "Miss Harriet" along with an additional story titled "L'Orient - Un Million." The focus of the texts revolves around complex characters and their tumultuous relationships, delving into themes of love, desire, and existential reflection. The opening of "Miss Harriet" sets the stage with a group of travelers, including a painter, who embark on an excursion to explore the ruins of Tancarville. Among them is an intriguing character, Miss Harriet, an elderly Englishwoman who is perceived as eccentric and a bit of an outsider by the local villagers. Throughout their interactions, the narrator describes her passion for nature and her attempts to maintain a virtuous outlook in a world that seems to reject her. As the story evolves, it hints at deeper emotional connections and ultimately tragic turns, foreshadowing a poignant exploration of isolation and the human experience.
