Après le succès de "Boule de Suif", tout le monde attendait Maupassant au tournant. "La Maison Tellier", peinture d'un moment exceptionnel dans la vie d'un bordel de province, fait taire les détracteurs. Nous sommes bien en présence d'un maître. Il en va de même pour les nouvelles qui font de Maupassant l'un des auteurs les plus connus de la planète. Dans "Au printemps" et dans "Pétition d'un viveur malgré lui" ressort une certaine misogynie, mais quel brio.

Story0
Journal intime où l’inquiétude enfle jour après jour, Le Horla (1887) est une nouvelle d’épouvante de Guy de Maupassant. À travers des notations quotidiennes, une voix solitaire consigne des troubles d’abord imperceptibles, puis une angoisse qui gagne, jusqu’à ne plus savoir si le monde extérieur vacille ou si c’est la raison qui se fissure. Écrit à la première personne, ce récit court et fiévreux nous entraîne au plus près d’un esprit assiégé, au bord du réel. Une immersion hypnotique dans le malaise et le doute, qui laisse planer une menace indescriptible à chaque page.

Story0
Palla di burro è il titolo di una novella di Guy de Maupassant, un piccolo capolavoro, una "favola per adulti", come è stata opportunamente definita. Scritta nel 1880 si ispira alla guerra franco-prussiana del 1870 e rappresenta una delle espressioni più elevate dell'ironia e della satira antiborghese della letteratura mondiale. Si racconta del viaggio in diligenza che una ragazza dalla discutibile moralità si appresta a fare in compagnia di alcune cosiddette "persone per bene".

Monsieur Saval blickt auf sein Leben zurück, und was er dort sieht, gefällt ihm ganz und gar nicht. Seit seine Mutter gestorben ist, hat er niemanden mehr - und über sechzig ist er auch mittlerweile. Er wird einsam sterben, das wird ihm klar. Aber warum ist alles so gekommen? Hätte er nicht auch eine Frau haben können? Aber es hat sich nie ergeben. Bis auf das eine Mal, als er mit der Frau seines Freundes alleine am Fluss war... Eine wunderbar-wehmütige Novelle über das menschliche Leben, verpasste Chancen und die immer wiederkehrende Frage des "Was wäre, wenn...".

Story0
Paru en 1887 avec d'autres récits, "Le Horla" est incontestablement le plus original et le plus effrayant de tous les contes fantastiques de Maupassant. Pour l'écrire, l'auteur s'est documenté auprès du docteur Charcot, célèbre spécialiste des névroses et des hystéries. Mais surtout, il s'est probablement inspiré des troubles nerveux qui commençaient alors à le détruire et qui allaient bientôt l'empoter.
