Summary "Drie Vertellingen" by Gustave Flaubert is a collection of short stories written during the late 19th century. The book contains three distinct tales, one of which is titled "Een Eenvoudige Ziel," focusing on the life and experiences of Félicité, a devoted maid who navigates themes of love, loss, and duty against the backdrop of her employer's household. At the start of "Een Eenvoudige Ziel," we are introduced to Félicité, who is envied for her exceptional domestic skills and unwavering loyalty to her mistress, Madame Aubain. The narrative delves into her life story, revealing her humble beginnings, personal heartaches, and the intricate dynamics within the Aubain household. As Félicité becomes more entwined with the lives of the Aubain family, especially the children Paul and Virginie, her character evolves into a selfless figure who endures hardship while maintaining a quiet strength and devotion. The opening of the story sets the stage for a poignant exploration of Félicité's inner life and the relationships she cherishes. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
