Loved him since Jr. High!
DeMaupassant was first assigned in 8th grade and I've loved his short stories ever since. This book will be a joy!

The Best Short Stories of Guy deMaupassant
I have been in a conversational French class for more than 3 years. A couple of years ago we started a book club also and have been reading books about French life, French food...all things French. This time we are reading this lovely collection of short stories by Guy de Maupassant. Each story paints a quaint picture of life in France in the 19th century. Each is a wonderful picture of the culture of France as it was...and often still is today. The book club members will soon pick one of the stories in this book and read it in the French. Wow, we are glad to have the English to begin with.

Entertaining
An interesting and diverse group of stories. Provides a sense of 1880 France.

Je t'aime Maupassant.
Maupassant is by far the master of the short story. I've read many classics and his stories are, in my opinion, the best. They will sweep you away to another world.
