The Théâtre des Nouveautés, situated at the heart of the boulevard, where its main entrance was a blaze of light, among the fashionable restaurants and select clubs, a theatre to which small parties used to adjourn after a choice dinner to hear an act or two of something racy, had become in the hands of its clever manager the most popular of all Parisian play-houses, with no well-defined speciality but providing a little of all sorts, from the spectacular fairy-play which exhibits the women in scant attire, to the great modern drama which does the same for our morals.
Mother and children were making their way, under an awning that crossed the street, to the matinee of a fairy-play. The Liberry Teacher smiled at the children with more than her accustomed goodwill, and lowered her umbrella quickly to let them pass. The mother smiled back, a smile that changed, as the Liberry Teacher passed, to puzzled remembrance.
It was not his first dramatic effort, as he had already written a sort of lyric fairy-play, Le Château des Coeurs, which was published in his Oeuvres Posthumes. In 1849 Flaubert visited Greece, Egypt, and Syria, again accompanied by his friend Maxime Ducamp.
