Guy de Maupassant (1850 - 1893) is recognized as one of the fathers of the modern short story and one of its finest exponents. From the humorous to the tragic to the gruesome, with an economy and precision of language, his stories can delight or disturb. Here are 10 of them.

"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.

Une vision très sombre et très pessimiste de l'humanité. Une fois encore, Robin Renucci prête sa voix à des textes de Maupassant. Il sait se faire tour à tour tragique ou persifleur, pour rendre toutes les facettes de l'humaine comédie.
