Summary:
Le monde est une mascarade où le succès va de préférence aux crapules. La réussite, les honneurs, les femmes et le pouvoir: le monde n'a guère changé. On rencontre toujours - moins les moustaches - dans les salles de rédaction ou ailleurs, de ces jeunes aventuriers de l'arrivisme et du sexe. Comme Flaubert, mais en riant, Maupassant disait de son personnage, l'odieux Duroy : " Bel-Ami, c'est moi. " Et pour le cynisme, la fureur sensuelle, l'athéisme, la peur de la mort, ils se ressemblaient assez. Mais Bel-Ami ne savait pas écrire, et devenait l'amant et le négrier d'une femme talentueuse et brillante. Maupassant, lui, était un immense écrivain. Universel, déjà, mais par son réalisme, ses obsessions et ses névroses, encore vivant aujourd'hui.

About the Story:
The novel follows the spectacular rise of Georges Duroy—a penniless former soldier working as a low-ranking railway clerk in Paris. Lacking any real intellectual talent, Duroy discovers he possesses a different kind of weapon: his charming looks and magnetic influence over powerful women. Rechristened "Bel-Ami" by his admirers, he ruthlessly climbs from a novice journalist to one of the most powerful media and political figures in Paris by exploiting the elite society around him.
