The opening of the book includes a preface detailing the editor's intentions and the selection process of the stories, emphasizing their variety and literary value. The stories included feature a wide range of themes, including military life in “L’enlèvement de la Redoute” by Mérimée, where a young officer reflects on courage and the chaos of battle, while Maupassant's tales delve into human emotions and perspectives on life. Additionally, the stories are accompanied by notes and a vocabulary section, enhancing their usability for students.
