The Complete Short Stories of Guy De Maupassant: Ten Volumes in One
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 30.47 $Excerpt from The Complete Short Stories of Guy De Maupassant: Ten Volumes in OneFor many days now the fag~end of the army had been straggling through the town. They were not troops, but a disbanded horde. The beards of the men were long and filthy, their uniforms in tatters, and they advanced at an easy pace without flag or regiment. All seemed worn-out and back-broken, inca pable of a thought or a resolution, marching by habit solely, and falling from fatigue as soon as they stopped. In short, they were a mobilized, pacific peo ple, bending under the weight of the gun; some little squads or. The alert, easy to take alarm and prompt in enthusiasm, ready to attack or to flee; and in the midst of them, some red breeches, the remains of a division broken up in a great battle; son e somber artillery men in line with these varied kinds of foot soldiers; and, sometimes the brilliant helmet of a dragoon on foot who fol lowed with difficulty the shortest march of the lines.Some legions of free-shooters, under the heroic names of Avengers of the Defeat, Citizens of the Tomb, Par takers of Death, passed in their turn with the air of bandits.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Complete Works of Guy De Maupassant : Short Stories- 1917
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 27.08 $For days and days, nights and nights, I had dreamed of that first kiss which was to consecrate our engagement, and I knew not on what spot I should put my lips. Not on her forehead, that was accustomed to family caresses, nor on her light hair, which mercenary hands had dressed, nor on her eyes, whose curling lashes looked like little wings, because that would have made me think of the farewell caress which closes the eyelids of some dead woman whom one has adored, nor her lovely mouth, which I will not, which I must not, possess until that divine moment when Elaine will at last belong to me altogether and for always, but on that delicious little dimple which comes in one of her cheeks when she is happy, when she smiles, and which excited me as much as her voice did with languorous softness, on that evening when our flirtation began, at the Souverettes...

Complete Short Stories of Maupassant
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 67.00 $Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant (1850 – 1893) was a popular French writer, considered one of the fathers of the modern short story and one of the form's finest exponents. His stories are characterized by economy of style and efficient, effortless outcomes. Many are set during the Franco-Prussian War of the 1870s, describing the futility of war and the innocent civilians who, caught up in events beyond their control, are permanently changed by their experiences. He wrote more than 300 short stories, six novels, three travel books, and one volume of verse. His first published story, "Boule de Suif" ("Ball of Fat", 1880), is often considered his masterpiece.

Horla and Others : Guy De Maupassant's Best Weird Fiction and Ghost Stories
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 20.35 $Before succumbing to the insanity that ravaged his later life, Guy de Maupassant established a reputation as France’s preeminent short story writer, an artist whose cynical and macabre visions paralleled those of Hoffmann and Poe, and directly influenced those of Ambrose Bierce, Mark Twain, and H.P. Lovecraft. His stories are nightmarescapes of psychopathy, corruption, and decadence, featuring a serial-killer judge, a maddening episode of cabin fever (which influenced The Shinning), a gruesome discovery during a night on the river, the inexplicable exodus of a man’s walking furniture, the famous invisible vampire, the Horla, werewolves, haunted rooms, neglected ghosts, and vivid affairs of necrophilia. This unique and unrivalled edition of de Maupassant’s best weird tales, fantasies, and mysteries includes critical introductions to each story, contextual information, and chilling illustrations that breathe life into his Gothic visions and bizarre fantasias.TALES INCLUDED in this ANNOTATED EDITION:The Dead Girl He?

125 contos de Guy de Maupassant
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 7.29 $Guy de Maupassant teve sua mestria reconhecida tardiamente. Somente hoje, mais de um século depois da década de 1880, justamente os dez anos exuberantes nos quais ele construiu praticamente toda a sua obra (mais de trezentos contos e seis romances, além de peças de teatro, poesias, crônicas, críticas artísticas e correspondências com vários interlocutores), somos capazes de avaliar com maior justeza o alcance e a importância de seu legado. Discípulo dileto de Gustave Flaubert, Maupassant foi um dos maiores expoentes da assim denominada literatura fantástica. Foi ele quem criou, com sua prosa rápida e afiada, as mais perfeitas descrições da vida da aristocracia, da baixa burguesia e do proletariado parisienses - ou seja, dos habitantes do centro do mundo ocidental de então. Por outro lado, seu testemunho sobre a existência ladina dos camponeses da Normandia - sua terra natal - e sobre a violência sofrida pelos soldados enviados às frentes de batalha é incomparável. Maupassant expôs com argúcia e sem recorrer ao sentimentalismo a hipocrisia, a brutalidade e a insensatez daquele mundo, um mundo que passaria a ser o nosso - já que foi no fin de siècle francês que se gestou o homem da modernidade em quem nos reconhecemos hoje: aquele que perdeu sua crença na gloriosa força da consciência e foi obrigado a admitir em si mesmo a presença de potências vindas da desrazão, num prenúncio incontestável da criação do conceito de inconsciente, por Sigmund Freud, e do surgimento do homem psicanalítico, nos anos que se seguiriam.
