"Mme Oreille était économe. Elle savait la valeur d'un sou et possédait un arsenal de principes sévères sur la multiplication de l'argent. Sa bonne, assurément, avait grand mal à faire danser l'anse du panier ; et M. Oreille n'obtenait sa monnaie de poche qu'avec une extrême difficulté. Ils étaient à leur aise pourtant, et sans enfants ; mais Mme Oreille éprouvait une vraie douleur à voir les pièces blanches sortir de chez elle."

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.

Pendant dix ans, de 1880 à 1890, Maupassant écrivit plus de 300 contes et nouvelles, réalistes ou fantastiques, pessimistes ou drôles, qui conquirent le public de l'époque. Aujourd'hui encore, Maupassant reste l'un des romanciers français les plus adaptés dans le monde sur les écrans.

A vague jealousy, one of those dormant jealousies which grow up between brothers or sisters and slowly ripen till they burst, on the occasion of a marriage perhaps, or of some good fortune happening to one of them, kept them on the alert in a sort of brotherly and non-aggressive animosity. They were fond of each other, it is true, but they watched each other. Pierre, five years old when Jean was born, had looked with the eyes of a little petted animal at that other little animal which had suddenly come to lie in his father's and mother's arms and to be loved and fondled by them.

"Mon Dieu ! Mon Dieu ! Je vais donc écrire enfin ce qui m'est arrivé ! Mais le pourrai-je ? l'oserai-je ? cela est si bizarre, si inexplicable, si incompréhensible, si fou ! Si je n'étais sûr de ce que j'ai vu, sûr qu'il n'y a eu, dans mes raisonnements, aucune défaillance, aucune erreur dans mes constatations, pas de lacune dans la suite inflexible de mes observations, je me croirais un simple halluciné, le jouet d'une étrange vision. Après tout, qui sait ?"

Anton Chekhov, Guy de Maupassant, Kate Chopin. These three names thrill the literary world as well as our own. They have gravitas, they have knowledge, experience and they have the literary style and panache to seduce our imagined world. Each has written a short story on pleasured lips placed on another’s flesh. For Chekhov it was a kiss in a darkened room that happened by mistake. Who was she? For Chopin it was a kiss that almost derailed a hoped-for marriage proposal. Why did he do that? For de Maupassant it was a niece seeking advice from her Aunt on when to kiss and whom. And did she?

Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant was born on August 5th, 1850, near Dieppe in France. In 1880 he published what is considered his first great work, ‘Boule de Suif’, (translated as as ‘Dumpling’, ‘Butterball’, ‘Ball of Fat’, or ‘Ball of Lard’), which met with a success that was both instant and overwhelming. Flaubert at once acknowledged that it was ‘a masterpiece that will endure.’ Maupassant had used his talents and experiences in the war to create something unique.

Aber wir konnten keine gewöhnliche Ruderin brauchen, wir fünf, die ganz anders waren, wie die übrigen Menschen. Wir mussten etwas ganz Verrücktes, Komisches haben, eine, die zu allem fähig gewesen wäre, kurz eben gar nicht zu finden. Wir hatten eine Menge ohne Erfolg durchprobiert, Bootsmädchen aber keine Ruderinnen, blödsinnige Matrosenmädel, die dem fließenden Wasser, das das Boot trägt, den Landwein vorzogen, um sich einen Schwips anzutrinken. Einen Sonntag behielten wir sie, und dann wurde sie mit Ekel weggeschickt.
