Three Tales
This book is a collection of three short stories: A Simple Heart, Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller and Hérodias. In A Simple Heart, it is the intimate psychologist who works to reveal the grandeur of a tiny life; in The Legend of Saint Julian the Hospitaller, the fable lover lets himself be carried away by the supernatural; Finally, in Hérodias, the historian also becomes a painter to recreate the meeting of Christianity and Judaism in all its flamboyance.
