Yvette

Yvette

Guy de Maupassant

Although Yvette is a novella of fashionable life, written in an elegant manner, it cannot be considered merely a likable drawing room. Yvette is much more complex.

It contains both objective social criticism and subjective feelings; it is satirical, but also sentimental, because the writer is infatuated with his heroine. But Maupassant's social criticism is not direct: he almost never accuses, but presents the facts, which and how they accuse, because the social reality that gives Yvette's mother no choice but to be a courtesan of great style or a miserable servant, this reality does not give Yvette either to get out of that vicious circle.
