Boule de Suif (1880) is a short story by the late-19th century French writer Guy de Maupassant. It is arguably his most famous short story, and is the title story for his collection on the Franco-Prussian War, entitled "Boule de Suif et Autres Contes de la Guerre" ("Boule de Suif and Other Stories of the War"). John Ford said that his film Stagecoach was in many ways a western rewrite of Boule de Suif.

This chilling tale of one man’s descent into madness was published shortly before the author was institutionalized for insanity, and so The Horla has inevitably been seen as informed by Guy de Maupassant’s mental illness. While such speculation is murky, it is clear that de Maupassant—hailed alongside Chekhov as father of the short story—was at the peak of his powers in this innovative precursor of first-person psychological fiction.

The most popular and perhaps the greatest of Maupassant's full-length novels, A Woman's Life is the story of the unfortunate Jeanne, a Norman gentlewoman. Avarice and lechery, cruelty and greed, conspire against Jeanne wherever she goes. Maupassant exposes the evil around Jeanne with characteristic detachment and precision, yet his pessimism is, as always, qualified by passages of great lyric beauty, and by the touching sympathy and tenderness with which he portrays his heroine.

The fraternal love that Pierre Roland feels for his younger brother Jean has always been tinged with jealousy. But when a lawyer arrives at the house of their parents, to declare that an old family friend has bequeathed his entire fortune to Jean, this envy rapidly becomes an all-consuming force. Despising himself for the hate that he feels, Pierre roams the seaport of Le Havre alone, desperate to come to terms with his brother's success.

"Il était mort chef d’un haut tribunal, magistrat intègre dont la vie irréprochable était citée dans toutes les cours de France. Il avait passé sa vie à poursuivre le crime et à protéger les faibles. Les escrocs et les meurtriers n’avaient point eu d’ennemi plus redoutable, car il semblait lire, au fond de leurs âmes, leurs pensées secrètes, et démêler, d’un coup d’œil, tous les mystères de leurs intentions.

Nach dem Tod der Mutter halten ihre beiden Kinder, ein pflichtversessener Beamter und eine dem weltlichen Leben abgewandte Nonne, Totenwache. Während der Nacht finden sie Briefe der Verstorbenen und beschließen, diese zu lesen, um so über den Tod hinaus eine Verbindung zu ihrer Mutter und deren Familie zu halten. Doch einige dieser Briefe behandeln Themen, die sie bei ihrer sittenstrengen Mutter ganz und gar nicht erwartet hätten... Die "Totenwache" ist eine wunderbare Miniatur: Kein Wort zuviel – und die Geschichte entfaltet sich im Kopf der Hörenden.

On the Water is a gorgeously written collection of essays that all take place on or near the water and pay tribute to the flora and fauna associated with those ecosystems. There are essays about the finer points of tickling rainbow trout in the streams of Normandy, and of eagles and ospreys fishing for bass while barely breaking the surface of the water. There are stories of droughts and floods, of dogs and boats, of worms and rattlesnakes, and even of catching and cooking soft-shell turtles that taste like osso-bucco.
