Butterball by Guy de Maupassant
6M & 8F
Considered one of the greatest short stories ever written, Boule de Suif is an explosive moral thriller that exquisitely unpicks class, loyality and human nature.
Butterball is an elaborated play from the peerless translation of the short story by Siân Miles. An adaptation that dares to add to Maupassant's original with the inclusion of a love story between Boule de Suif and the hostage-taking Prussian Officer.
