RESUME:
These three stories include "The Legend of Saint Julian
the Hospitaller," in which the hero is rescued from his
humanity and its consequences by the grace of God; "A Simple
Heart," one of Flaubert's most celebrated stories, in which a
poor country woman who leads an exemplary life becomes
obsessively devoted to her parrot, even after its death; and
"Herodias," based on the legendary story of King Herod, Salome,
and the head of John the Baptist.
