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
Im Elysee Montmartre war Maskenball. Es war Mittfasten, und die Menge strömte, wie das Wasser in eine Schleuse läuft, in den erleuchteten Gang, der zum Tanzsaal führte. Die laute Musik des Orchesters, die wie ein Orkan daher stürmte, durchtoste Mauern und Dach, klang in das ganz Stadtviertel hinaus, in alle Straßen bis hinein in die benachbarten Häuser, um jene unwiderstehliche Lust, die als tierischer Instinkt im Menschenherzen lebt, zu wecken: die Lust zu tanzen, sein Blut in Wallung zu bringen, sich zu unterhalten.

Story
Das da ist Milial, - sagte jemand neben mir. Ich betrachtete den Mann, den man mir bezeichnet hatte, denn schon längst hatte ich Lust, diesen Don Juan kennen zu lernen. Er war nicht mehr jung. Sein graues, ein wenig wirres Haar ähnelte jenen Pelzmützen, die nördliche Völker tragen, und sein feiner, langer Bart fiel ihn auf die Brust und sah auch beinah wie Pelz aus. Er sprach mit einer Frau, neigte sich zu ihr, redete leise und blickte sie mit süßem, Zärtlichkeit und Liebe verheißenden Blick an.

Story
In Fécamp kannte jedermann die Geschichte der alten Patin. Mit ihrem Mann war die alte Patin freilich nicht gerade glücklich gewesen, denn der hatte sie bei seinen Lebzeiten gedroschen wie Getreide in der Tenne. Er war Besitzer eines Fischerbootes gewesen und hatte sie einst geheiratet, weil sie nett war, wenn auch arm. Patin war ein guter Matrose, aber ein roher Kunde, der die Kneipe des alten Auban oft besuchte, wo er an gewöhnlichen Tagen vier oder fünf Schnäpse trank, wenn er aber einen reichen Fischzug gemacht hatte, acht oder zehn und oft mehr je nach Stimmung, wie er sagte.

Story
Anton Chekhov, Guy de Maupassant, Kate Chopin. These three names thrill the literary world as well as our own. They have gravitas, they have knowledge, experience and they have the literary style and panache to seduce our imagined world. Each has written a short story on pleasured lips placed on another’s flesh. For Chekhov it was a kiss in a darkened room that happened by mistake. Who was she? For Chopin it was a kiss that almost derailed a hoped-for marriage proposal. Why did he do that? For de Maupassant it was a niece seeking advice from her Aunt on when to kiss and whom. And did she?

Story
Aber wir konnten keine gewöhnliche Ruderin brauchen, wir fünf, die ganz anders waren, wie die übrigen Menschen. Wir mussten etwas ganz Verrücktes, Komisches haben, eine, die zu allem fähig gewesen wäre, kurz eben gar nicht zu finden. Wir hatten eine Menge ohne Erfolg durchprobiert, Bootsmädchen aber keine Ruderinnen, blödsinnige Matrosenmädel, die dem fließenden Wasser, das das Boot trägt, den Landwein vorzogen, um sich einen Schwips anzutrinken. Einen Sonntag behielten wir sie, und dann wurde sie mit Ekel weggeschickt.

Story
Der Mann ging davon, schloss die Tür, und ich betrachtete meinen Reisegefährten. Er mochte fünfunddreißig Jahre zählen, obgleich sein Haar fast weiß geworden war. Er trug ein Ordensband, einen kräftigen Schnurrbart, war sehr dick, fettleibig, wie tatkräftige Leute, die durch ein körperliches Leiden zur Bewegungslosigkeit verdammt sind. Er wischte sich die Stirn, prustete und blickte mich an, in dem er sagte: „Stört es sie, wenn ich rauche?“

Story
Sie war hübsch, von Natur etwas verdorben, mit einem kindlich naiven Ausdruck, den er ihr Engelsgesicht nannte. Es gelang ihr, ihn vollkommen in Fesseln zu schlagen und aus ihm einen jener verrückten Gefangenen zu machen, einen jener Liebesrasenden, die ein Blick oder eine Schürze auf dem Scheiterhaufen der tödlichen Leidenschaft brennen lässt. Guy de Maupassant wurde als Sohn einer lothringischen Adelsfamilie am 05.08.1850 auf Schloss Miromesnil bei Dieppe geboren.

Er war so komisch, das sogar die Mädchen ihm nicht widerstanden, so sehr sie über ihn lachten, und obgleich er sehr hässlich war. Er verschleppte sie, ulkend und witzelnd hinter eine Mauer, in einen Graben oder in einen Stall, dann krabbelte er sie und knutschte sie ab mit so komischen Redensarten, dass sie sich die Seiten halten mussten, indem sie ihn von sich stießen. Dann tat er so, als wollte er sich sofort aufhängen und dann lachten sie wieder, Tränen in den Augen.

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.

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
This chilling tale of one man’s descent into madness was published shortly before the author was institutionalized for insanity, and so The Horla has inevitably been seen as informed by Guy de Maupassant’s mental illness. While such speculation is murky, it is clear that de Maupassant—hailed alongside Chekhov as father of the short story—was at the peak of his powers in this innovative precursor of first-person psychological fiction.

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.
