Selected Stories from Maupassant (part 1)

About This Novel
In the French literary world of the 19th century, Maupassant was known as the "King of Short Stories". Maupassant's best subject matter is the Franco-Prussian War in which he personally participated, his ten-year clerkship career, and his life in his hometown in Normandy as a teenager. These three environments provide extremely rich themes for his short stories. These works extol the people's patriotic enthusiasm, express rural customs and world conditions, and truly reflect the monotonous and stereotyped life of small clerks. They have their own artistic characteristics and are not the same. They are like the various schools on a gemstone, which jointly reflect brilliant light.
