Bola De Sebo

Bola de sebo

by Guy de Maupassant

En la Francia ocupada por los prusianos durante la guerra franco-prusiana, un grupo de viajeros se ve obligado a pasar la noche en una posada aislada. Allí, un oficial prusiano exige que una de las mujeres, conocida como "Bola de sebo", pase la noche con él a cambio de permitirles continuar su viaje. La situación crea un dilema moral y social para los viajeros, quienes deben decidir si se someten al trato inhumano o arriesgan su seguridad y libertad. La historia explora temas de presión social, moralidad, sacrificio y la degradación humana en tiempos de guerra.
