| The 19th-century French author Guy de Maupassant is deemed one of the greatest short-story writers of all time. Known for its realism, simplicity, and directness, Maupassant’s fiction addresses the theme of human cruelty and incorporates his observations on French society. In addition to his more than 200 short stories, Maupassant also wrote travel sketches and six novels. | ||||||
