About This Item
LIttle Scholarz Pvt. Ltd., 2017. Paperback. New. 140 X 215 mm. Guy De Maupassant (5 August 1850 - 6 July 1893) was a popular 19th-century French writer, considered one of the fathers of the modern short story and one of the forms finest exponents.He delighted in clever plotting, and served as a model for Somerset Maugham and O. Henry in this respect. His stories about expensive jewellery The Necklace, Les Bijoux are imitated with a twist by Maugham Mr Know-All, A String of Beads and Henry James.Taking his cue from Balzac, Maupassant wrote comfortably in both the high-Realist and fantastic modes. The supernatural in Maupassant, however, is often implicity a symptom of the protagonists troubled minds.
