Maupassant's second novel, Bel-Ami (1885) is the story of a ruthlessly ambitious young man (Georges Duroy, christened "Bel-Ami" by his female admirers) making it to the top in fin-de-sihcle Paris. It is a novel about money, sex, and power, set against the background of the politics of the French colonization of North Africa. It explores the dynamics of an urban society uncomfortably close to our own and is a devastating satire of the sleaziness of contemporary journalism.Bel-Ami enjoys the status of an authentic record of the apotheosis of bourgeois capitalism under the Third Republic. But the creative tension between its analysis of modern behavior and its identifiably late nineteenth-century fabric is one of the reasons why Bel-Ami remains one of the finest French novels of its time, as well as being recognized as Maupassant's greatest achievement as a novelist.

Tooth whitener
Flavor Name: A Coconut+Green Tea+Peach
I have used the green bottle so far! As soon as you bite into one, it starts to foam up. I let it foam for a few minutes, and then I brush my teeth. It does freshen your breath and I think it's making my teeth whiter! I have not had a chance to try the other flavors yet. The flavor is mild but good! It is fun to use!

Flavor Name: A Coconut+Green Tea+Peach
These are very interesting. They work very fast like they said. The taste isnt bad so far ive tried the peach and its nice and strong. Only thing id say is its not like brushing your teeth like it claims its more of like a stronger breath mint that foams. Other than that id say its a great mint and product as a mint that you need to spit out haha. I look forward to using them.

Wow. Explosion of froth and mouthwash in one little tablet.
Flavor Name: 2-Bottle Green Tea
I love these for travel, and put some in a tiny container in my purse, too. You just have to spit it out - no rinse necessary. I might try a different flavor than the green tea. Don't love it, but do love the product.
