Almost every other year between 1862 and 1892 a new play, on untried themes, or adapted from one of his novels and usually written in collaboration, appeared at a Parisian theater. Of all these only one, "L'Arlésienne" , is worthy of its author. Already in 1859, as a result of the suffering of the preceding years and lack of precautions, his health had begun to fail.
"Le Petit Chose," his first long work, had been begun in 1866 during his stay in Provence; it was published in 1868. The first part, which is of great interest, is largely autobiographical and covers the childhood and youth of the writer up to his first years in Paris; the second part is a colorless romance of no particular merit.
Originally begun by the celebrated DANIEL DE FOE, continued by the late Mr RICHARDSON, author of Clarissa, etc., and brought down to the present time by Gentlemen of Eminence in the Literary wold, 4 vols. London, Printed for Strahan, etc., 1778.
