In literature, guilt is a recurring theme that explores the emotional and psychological burden of wrongdoing or moral conflict experienced by characters.

"Nouvelles" translates to "short stories" in English when used on a French book cover. It indicates that the book contains a collection of short fiction pieces rather than a single long narrative.
A narrative story has characters and settings and conflict. It's what you typically think of when you think of "a story" - something that tells a tale instead of just relaying information like a textbook.
An example would be:
I was going to the store when a bank robber held me hostage. The police surrounded the criminal. I prayed to get away. There seemed to be no escape as the bank robber carried me off to his car. But, I was saved in the end when a cop shot the tires, stopping the bank robber from getting away.
The story has characters-- the narrator, the bank robber, and the police. It has conflict-- bank robber has the narrator hostage, and the police trying to catch the criminial. It has settings-- a street after a bank robbary. It also has climax-- it seems as though the narrator is going to be kidnapped by the bank robber. It has a conclusion-- the narrator is saved.
An example of not a narrative story is I went to the store. I got some milk. I checked out and went home. In this example, there is a character and setting but no conflict. The story seems to not go anywhere. Narrative A narrative can be fictional or true, as long as the story is clear and has correct grammar, spelling, and vocabulary. It also needs the author to be focused and excited on the narrative for it to look good. You need a good pen or if you want it digitized, then use Fly format or type it like I did. That's basically all the requirements of a good narrative.

Example story Christmas Blossoms
I walked, gently towards my little brother, Eteey and ruffled his hair up. He laughed and the joy returned to his face. He didn't even know what was going on, but I did. My mother, Julia walked into the room with my annoying, older sister, May, who were both each holding pastry based sweets like pies and cakes. Both put the cake on the table. Eteey was having a fit before I calmed him down, since he didn't know what was going on and he always mad.
"Hmmm...Hey, Peter, (the 'I' was Peter) can't you help us once in a while with cooking?", said May.
"Nah, you want me to make a fire in the house like last time?", I protested.
"Well, you could learn something from us, instead of playing your stupid Nintendo Wii all the time!"
I sighed and continued to play my Nintendo Wii, which was in the living room. Julia smiled at this and called us into the other portion of the living room. Eteey smiled and my big sister also smiled. Even I, who was too much of a computer freak, looked too. Presents layed around the Christmas room, just as May and I expected.
My little brother dived into the presents as if he was about to dive into a pool and quickly opened the presents entitled to him like he was a frightening, gobbling shark. "Ooh, my own drawin' book, yay, a Hot Wheels controller truck, and...and...and...MY OWN LUGIA AND PIKACHU ACTION FIGURE! Now I can add that to my collection!" Eteey cried.
May, Julia, and I smiled at his predictable behavior and focused on our presents. "Mom, I can't wait until you open my present!" May told her.
Julia was amazed. She had received the new montly issue of 'HOW TO BE PRETTY' and I despised these, because of the book's hypnosis over women. I already thought Mom was beautiful the way she looked. The women turned to the present Eteey got her. It was a card that told a mother why a toddler loved her. The blonde smiled at this and kissed my brother on the cheek, surprised at what was actually inside the card. An admission to work at Sunday Salon, the beauty shop lay inside. "How'd you..." she stopped when I said, "I helped him." Julia smiled and hugged us both, including May.
May opened her gifts and happily found a diamond necklace, which she had been craving for the entire winter from Julia, a new shirt from me, and with some help from me, Eteey got her the pants she had also been asking for all winter. This confused me, as she both kissed Eteey, Julia, and me on the cheek, then moving, so I was able to open my presents. I breathed and opened my gift, slowly and carefully, finding a set of new boxers from Mom. "Wow. Thanks. Like I needed that.", I said, sarcastically. Next, I opened Eteey's gift, which was just a wad of bubble gum. "Thanks, really, Eteey." I said, sarcastically, which fooled my little brother all the while, so he grinned. He opened the final present, which he knew was from May and he knew it was something that stunk. He again, was surprised, because he got the new hit Wii game that was what all the kids at school were talking about. "Yeah, I can't be nice" she murmured and turned only to see I was hugging her like a loving brother. Then Eteey and Mom came and hugged me too and we were instantly cuddled up like Siamese twins.
