Story
Guy de Maupassant is widely regarded as the father of the modern short story. As his 13 volumes of short stories attest, he was a prolific writer of this form. He had a simple, efficient style of writing and, like Anton Chekhov, found inspiration for his stories in the day-to-day lives of characters, in which their hidden natures are often revealed. Many of his works also centered on the Franco-Prussian War, in which he served.

Story
À dix-sept ans, radieuse, prête à toutes les joies, à tous les hasards, Jeanne quitte enfin le couvent. Dans le désœuvrement des jours et la solitude des espérances, de tous ses rêves, le plus impatient est celui de l'amour... Oh ! Elle en sait des choses sur le frémissement des cœurs, l'élan des âmes. Elle les a si souvent pressentis, espérés, ces bonheurs-là. Aussi, lorsqu'il paraît, le reconnaît-elle sans peine. L'être créé pour elle...

Story
"C'était l'automne, la saison rousse. Les feuilles voltigeaient sur les gazons comme des volées d'oiseaux. On sentait traîner dans l'air des odeurs de terre humide, de terre dévêtue, comme on sent une odeur de chair nue quand tombe, après le bal, la robe d'une femme." ("Un coq chanta") "Les Contes de la Bécasse" est un recueil de nouvelles de Guy de Maupassant publié pour la première fois en 1883. Cette série d'histoires est profondément marquée par la Normandie sa jeunesse.

Story
Guy de Maupassant is revered for his naturalistic fiction, which brilliantly captures flesh-and-blood characters as it evokes the most telling details of everyday life. Considered one of the finest French novels ever written, Bel Ami follows journalist Georges Duroy and his increasing stature among the Paris elite. With an immense thirst for power, Georges is not above an almost gleeful use of wealthy mistresses to achieve his ends.
