Описание: ... un matin, comme je me promenais pres de mon parterre de rosiers, je vis, je vis distinctement tout pres de moi, la tige d'une des plus belles roses se casser comme si une main invisible l'eut cueillie, la fleur resta suspendue dans l'air transparent, toute seule, immobile, effrayante, a trois pas de mes yeux.
Saisi d'une epouvante folle, je me jetai sur elle pour la saisir. Je ne trouvai rien. Elle avait disparu...
a partir de ce moment-la, je sus qu'il existait pres de moi un etre invisible qui m'avait hante et qui revenait. Un peu plus tard, j'en eus la preuve.
Confession lucide et maitrisee d'un homme qui assiste au naufrage de sa propre raison, Le Horla nous revele la trajectoire secrete et fulgurante qui relie la plenitude de la sante au martyre de la demence. Nul autre recit fantastique - en raison, peut-etre, de certains accents autobiographiques - n'a developpe avec plus de rigueur et de verite clinique l'implacable logique de l'imaginaire.

Описание: Et je voyais que tous avaient ete les bourreaux de leurs proches, haineux, deshonnetes, hypocrites, menteurs, fourbes, calomniateurs, envieux, qu'ils avaient vole, trompe, accompli tous les actes honteux, tous les actes abominables, ces bons peres, ces epouses fideles, ces fils devoues, ces jeunes filles chastes, ces commercants probes, ces hommes et ces femmes dits irreprochables. Ils ecrivaient tous en meme temps, sur le seuil de leur demeure eternelle, la cruelle, terrible et sainte verite que tout le monde ignore ou feint d'ignorer sur la terre.

Описание: Bel-Ami is the story of a ruthlessly ambitious young man (Georges Duroy, christened "Bel-Ami" by his female admirers) making it to the top in fin-de-sihcle Paris. It is a novel about money, sex, and power, set against the background of the politics of the French colonization of North Africa. It explores the dynamics of an urban society uncomfortably close to our own and is a devastating satire of the sleaziness of contemporary journalism. Bel-Ami enjoys the status of an authentic record of the apotheosis of bourgeois capitalism under the Third Republic. But the creative tension between its analysis of modern behavior and its identifiably late nineteenth-century fabric is one of the reasons why Bel-Ami remains one of the finest French novels of its time, as well as being recognized as Maupassant's greatest achievement as a novelist.

Описание: Of the French writers of romance of the latter part of the nineteenth century no one made a reputation as quickly as did Guy de Maupassant. Not one has preserved that reputation with more ease, not only during life, but in death. None so completely hides his personality in his glory. In an epoch of the utmost publicity, in which the most insignificant deeds of a celebrated man are spied, recorded, and commented on, the author of "Boule de Suif," of "Pierre et Jean," of "Notre Coeur," found a way of effacing his personality in his work. Of De Maupassant we know that he was born in Normandy about 1850; that he was the favorite pupil, if one may so express it, the literary prot g , of Gustave Flaubert; that he made his d but late in 1880, with a novel inserted in a small collection, published by Emile Zola and his young friends, under the title: "The Soir es of Medan"; that subsequently he did not fail to publish stories and romances every year up to 1891, when a disease of the brain struck him down in the fullness of production; and that he died, finally, in 1893, without having recovered his reason.

Описание: Henry James's admiration for "this masterly little novel" has been echoed throughout the twentieth century by readers of Pierre et Jean. It marked a turning point in the development of French fiction, situated as it is between traditional social realism and the psychological novel. It isrecognized as a classic study of filial jealousy, triggered by one of the two brothers of its title finding himself the sole inheritor of the fortune of his mother's former lover. Pierre et Jean is set in Le Havre in the 1880s and is notable for its evocation of the Normandy coastline captured by the Impressionists. But Maupassant's greatest achievement is to have woven from this simple plot in a maritime context a brilliantly crafted exploration of the complexities at theheart of family life.
