About This Novel
Paris at the end of the 19th century was like a masquerade, and success favored the sanctimonious. The protagonist Duloa was originally the son of a poor hotel owner in a rural town. He used his beautiful appearance to seduce women and used his ability to flatter, step by step, to become an important figure in politics and journalism. The novel creates an image of an unscrupulous speculative adventurer, and makes a bitter satire and criticism of the gangster-like Georges Duroy's rapid fortune in a short period of time. The novel profoundly reveals the political and economic phenomena of French society at the end of the 19th century, and is worthy of being a classic French novel of the 19th century.
