Bel- Ami
Édition enrichie (Présentation, préface, notes, commentaires sur l'oeuvre, chronologie et bibliographie)A qui Georges Duroy doit-il son irrésistible ascension ? Aux femmes séduites par sa jeunesse et sa beauté. La petite fille de l'une de ses maîtresses le surnommera Bel-Ami. Et ce fils d'aubergistes normands, à Canteleu, deviendra baron Du Roy de Cantel. L'amitié lui ouvrira la carrière journalistique. L'amour lui donnera l'argent et la gloire. Maupassant a été journaliste. Il a connu ce monde parisien du xixe siècle, les salles de rédaction qui font et défont les ministères, et leurs annexes, les salons mondains où naissent intrigues et liaisons. Ses portraits de femmes dévorées d'amour ou d'ambition, ses tableaux de la vallée de la Seine à Rouen, ses fiacres, avenue du Bois de Boulogne, sont oeuvre de peintre. Maupassant était un maître du récit.Préface de Jacques Laurent.

Guy de Maupassant
Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant (UK: , US: ; French: ; 5 August 1850 – 6 July 1893) was a 19th-century French author, celebrated as a master of the short story and associated with the naturalist literary school of thought, depicting human lives, destinies, and social forces in disillusioned and often pessimistic terms.
Maupassant was a protégé of Gustave Flaubert and his stories are characterized by economy of style and efficient, seemingly effortless dénouements. 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 300 short stories, six novels, three travel books, and one volume of verse. His first published story, "Boule de Suif" ("The Dumpling", 1880), is often considered his most famous work.
