I would have said the same a few weeks ago,to tell the true,as I had finished to re-re-read (over the time) the complete short storys from S.Maugham,I then started to read his novels,and look..there where some stories twice...the late ( Novels )had more room to breath,the author could go in more...But I must add that his output is more a smaller one ..than Tolstoi...
The novel I prefer are the one that are about the same construction as short stories...
Guy De Maupassant is the work I most like from every thing I ever read,his prosa is so pure ( In French) his kindness,his understanding of the human condition so brillant... his mentor wrote the best novel I ever put under my eyes,with Madame Bovary,a portait,more living than life itself,when you have this treasure in you hand ..you do not have to go outside to the called " real world"
John Ford´s Stagecoach took inspiration in Guy `s "mademoisell Fifi "and maybe "La maison Tellier " his genius was to be able to transport in another vehicule.in a minor one ( so called) genre : the western..La nouvelle garde (Truffaud,Godard and the rest did well understand it.
Decameron is another love of mine short, full of life and pleasantly erotic..
The exeption always do confirm the rule, all in all ,I agree to your view,as my personnal temperament dictate me the same feling & understanding !
The films are the views from some one else, the books are far more complex in the reflexion that they generated...in..one self.Patrick.
