Story
"Le Papa de Simon" raconte l'histoire d'un garçon qui n'a plus de père, et est la risée de ses camarades. "Il avait sept ou huit ans. Il était un peu pâlot, très propre, avec l'air timide, presque gauche. Il s'en retournait chez sa mère quand les groupes de ses camarades, chuchotant toujours et le regardant avec les yeux malins et cruels des enfants qui méditent un mauvais coup, l'entourèrent peu à peu et finirent par l'enfermer tout à fait. Il restait là, planté au milieu d'eux, surpris et embarrassé, sans comprendre ce qu'on allait lui faire."

Story
Guy de Maupassant was an absolute master of the short story genre, delighting in clever plotting, concise style, and efficient storytelling, which he used to produce stunning pieces in a very condensed format. Maupassant specialized in realism, with its sharp criticism of lower human nature and society, and fantastic, although his ventures in the supernatural are often used as an implicit symptom of the protagonists' troubled minds - he was absolutely fascinated with psychiatry, which was nascent at the time.

Story
The diary is that most intimate of journals, of records. Within its pages the writer records and gives expression to their thoughts, their feelings, their emotional state on all the things that make up and surround them in this world. With authors of the calibre of Bulgakov, Woolf, Tolstoy, Twain and many others this volume explores characters whose lives seem dominated by these diaries, and the events that unfold are both compelling and literary journeys into the very personal and intimate side of their characters’ lives.

Story
Henry René Albert Guy de Maupassant nació en Dieppe, Francia, el 5 de agosto de 1850. Maupassant fue admirador y amigo de Gustave Flaubert al que conoció en 1867. Flaubert lo tomó bajo su protección, le abrió la puerta de algunos periódicos y le presentó a Iván Turgénev y Émile Zola. El escritor viajó a París tras la derrota francesa en la Guerra Franco-Prusiana de 1870 y trabajó como funcionario en varios ministerios, hasta que publicó en 1880 su primera gran obra, Bola de Sebo.

Depuis quarante jours, il marchait, cherchant partout du travail. Il avait quitté son pays, Ville-Avaray, dans la Manche, parce que l'ouvrage manquait. Compagnon charpentier, âgé de vingt-sept ans, bon sujet, vaillant, il était resté pendant deux mois à la charge de sa famille, lui, fils aîné, n'ayant plus qu'à croiser ses bras vigoureux, dans le chômage général. Le pain devint rare dans la maison ; les deux sœurs allaient en journée, mais gagnaient peu.

Story
Possessed of a voracious sexual appetite, bitter and frequently disillusioned by the history of his country and the foibles of its people is not a description that does justice to the tortured soul that was Guy de Maupassant. He was also a compassionate and deeply patriotic man, volunteering to fight for his country in the Franco-Prussian War at the age of 20 and again saw action reporting on the French campaign in Tunisia in 1881.

Story
Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893), a French author, was one of the most influential short story writers of the 19th century. 'Le Horla' is a truly terrifying story of a man, told through the pages of his diary, who is under the malign influence of some strange, invisible, parasitic being which saps his life energy. De Maupassant's clear, pragmatic language contrasts eerily with the ghastly and macabre narrative and draws the listener into the sheer terror of the situation.

"Dans la banlieue de Paris vivait une famille de bourgeois riches. Ils habitaient une élégante villa au milieu d'un parc, au bord de la Seine. Le cocher était ce François, gars de campagne, un peu lourdaud, bon cœur, niais, facile à duper. Comme il rentrait un soir chez ses maîtres, un chien se mit à le suivre. Il n'y prit point garde d'abord ; mais l'obstination de la bête à marcher sur ses talons le fit bientôt se retourner. Il regarda s'il connaissait ce chien. Non, il ne l'avait jamais vu. C'était une chienne d'une maigreur affreuse, avec de grandes mamelles pendantes."

Este relato esta compuesto por elementos antagónicos. Cargado de colores y vida para las descripciones de los paisajes y personajes secundarios, se torna casi cruel a la hora de referirse a Harriet. Descrito con los ojos de un pintor se nos presenta a un personaje frío, gris, inglés, en contraposición al pintor Chenal quien desde el inicio del relato de su historia de amor es presentado como cándido, lleno de vida, alguien que disfruta de la vida.

She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Story
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.
