Story
A wife’s indiscretion is answered with cruel estrangement. Yet when the couple meets again six years later in a train car, as two strangers traveling together, the Baron discovers the magnitude of his loss. Guy de Maupassant was a master of the short story, using every literary device and turn of phrase with masterful effect. A Meeting is an elegant tale that explores the consequences of unbridled, and bridled, passion.

Story
El protagonista de este magnífico cuento—uno de los mejores escritos por el autor francés—es un hombre apasionado por la noche parisina, amante de las caminatas nocturnas solitarias y de la oscuridad que envuelve los días. Maupassant nos ofrece un paseo por los lugares más emblemáticos de Francia, nos permite conocer a sus pobladores y a una ciudad atrapada en el siglo XIX. El poder de este relato se encuentra en el potente significado que hay detrás de la luz y la oscuridad, del vacío que domina al narrador, y del trágico destino que le depara.

Story
A stagecoach containing a microcosm of French society seek to escape to Le Havre during the Prussian war. Stopping at an inn along the way, they soon realize they have blundered into Prussian occupied territory. The travelers are not allowed to leave until one woman, a prostitute known as Boule de Suif, (literally suet dumpling, or ball of fat), sleeps with the commanding officer. This turn of events is met with universal indignation by the travelers. But as the days stretch out, everyone’s true colors are revealed.

Story
Loss in any form seems to burden us with more weight than anything that can possibly be gained or learnt from. The loss of a person, a loved one, is often overwhelming. Lives so interwoven that the severing or loss of one life leaves the other weakened, unable to function for some time. Recovery comes in a myriad of forms but is usually debilitating, slow and, in the end, we are not as whole as we once were.It is a subject that authors return to again and again.

Story
When we read or listen, words can have a transforming effect. Our mood can alter in the space of a few sentences from joy to sadness. And not just our mood. These words can affect us physically, they can engage our emotions and even in their sadness bring a lump to our throat and tears to our eyes. Sometimes the relief can be palpable. Our authors, from Anton Chekhov, Stephen Crane, Willa Cather, Katherine Mansfield and a wealth of others, are well aware of what their talents will evoke. Genius has many names.

Story
"Милый друг" — роман французского писателя Ги де Мопассана, написанный в 1885 году, рассказывает об авантюристе, который мечтает сделать блестящую карьеру. У него нет каких-либо талантов, разве что своей внешностью он может покорить сердце любой дамы, а совесть прощает ему любую подлость. И… этого хватает для того, чтобы стать сильным мира сего.

Story
Ich wartete lange Zeit, konnte keinen Entschluss fassen, sah ganz klar, aber war ängstlich bis zur Tollheit. Ich wartete stehend, lauschte immer auf den stets wechselnden Lärm, der in einzelnen Augenblicken zum Getöse wuchs, das einem ungeduldigen Toben von Wut, von seltsamer Empörung glich. Dann nahm ich plötzlich, in Scham vor mir selbst wegen meiner Feigheit, meinen Schlüsselbund, suchte den Schlüssel heraus, den ich brauchte, steckt ihn ins Schlüsselloch, schloss zweimal herum, öffnete die Tür mit aller Kraft, dass der Flügel gegen die Wand flog.

Story
Er blieb ein paar Sekunden stehen, um seine Frau zu betrachten und ward ein wenig bleich. Sie war sehr schön, schlank und sah vornehm aus in ihrem länglichen, feinen Gesicht, ihrem goldigen Elfenbeinteint, den großen grauen Augen und dem schwarzem Haar. Ohne ihn anzublicken, stieg sie ein. Sie schien ihn nicht einmal bemerkt zu haben bei ihrem so ausgesprochen hochmütigen Wesen, dass ihm die fürchterliche Eifersucht, die ihm lange schon quälte, von neuem das Herz zerriss.

Story
Ein junger, sehr reicher Mann, vornehm, idealen Geistes, hochherzig dazu, verliebt sich in ein schönes Mädchen, ja mehr als schön, anbetungswürdig, liebreizend und graziös, so gut, so zärtlich als schön. Und er heiratet sie. Eine Zeitlang ist er gegen sie voll Rücksicht und Zärtlichkeit; dann kümmert er sich weniger um sie, wird hart gegen sie und scheint eine unwiderstehliche Abneigung, einen unwiderstehlichen Ekel vor ihr zu empfinden. Eines Tages schlägt er sie sogar, nicht nur ohne Grund, sondern auch ohne Vorwand.

Story
Boule de Suif (1880) is a short story by the late-19th century French writer Guy de Maupassant. It is arguably his most famous short story, and is the title story for his collection on the Franco-Prussian War, entitled "Boule de Suif et Autres Contes de la Guerre" ("Boule de Suif and Other Stories of the War"). John Ford said that his film Stagecoach was in many ways a western rewrite of Boule de Suif.

Story
The most popular and perhaps the greatest of Maupassant's full-length novels, A Woman's Life is the story of the unfortunate Jeanne, a Norman gentlewoman. Avarice and lechery, cruelty and greed, conspire against Jeanne wherever she goes. Maupassant exposes the evil around Jeanne with characteristic detachment and precision, yet his pessimism is, as always, qualified by passages of great lyric beauty, and by the touching sympathy and tenderness with which he portrays his heroine.

Nach dem Tod der Mutter halten ihre beiden Kinder, ein pflichtversessener Beamter und eine dem weltlichen Leben abgewandte Nonne, Totenwache. Während der Nacht finden sie Briefe der Verstorbenen und beschließen, diese zu lesen, um so über den Tod hinaus eine Verbindung zu ihrer Mutter und deren Familie zu halten. Doch einige dieser Briefe behandeln Themen, die sie bei ihrer sittenstrengen Mutter ganz und gar nicht erwartet hätten... Die "Totenwache" ist eine wunderbare Miniatur: Kein Wort zuviel – und die Geschichte entfaltet sich im Kopf der Hörenden.
