About the author
Born in Nîmes, France, in 1840, Alphonse Daudet became one of the most widely read French novelists and short-story writers of the 19th century. He began working as a schoolteacher before moving to Paris, where he pursued a literary career as a poet, playwright, and fiction writer.
Daudet is remembered especially for Lettres de mon moulin (Letters from My Windmill), Le Petit Chose, and Tartarin de Tarascon, a humorous novel about a boastful southern French hero. His writing often combines warmth, satire, and close observation of provincial life.
He was married to the writer Julia Daudet and was the father of Léon, Lucien, and Edmée Daudet. He died in Paris on December 16, 1897, and was buried at Père Lachaise Cemetery.
