"Original Short Stories — Volume 02" by Guy de Maupassant is a compilation of short stories that explore the complexities of human nature in 19th-century France, from tales of love and passion to reflections on duty and existence; these stories use observations of French society to bring us to a time of romance and understanding. One notable tale illustrates this with the character of Colonel Laporte, whose reflections on the undying love of French men for women, even amidst the battlefields of the Franco-Prussian War, embody the themes of courage, duty, and the human heart and sets the tone for the rest of the collection.
