Our woe is upon us. 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. Indeed, he worked for years on The Horla’s themes and form, first drafting it as “Letter from a Madman,” then telling it from a doctor’s point of view, before finally releasing the terrified protagonist to speak for himself in its devastating final version. In a brilliant new translation, all three versions appear here as a single volume for the first time. The Art of The Novella Series Too short to be a novel, too long to be a short story, the novella is generally unrecognized by academics and publishers. Nonetheless, it is a form beloved and practiced by literature's greatest writers. In the Art Of The Novella series, Melville House celebrates this renegade art form and its practitioners with titles that are, in many instances, presented in book form for the first time.

Have you ever experienced a hot air balloon ride? This short story describes a trip from Paris to Belgium taken by the popular French author Guy de Maupassant. Describing in detail every sight and sound, he takes readers on a balloon ride like no other. The three crew members and three passengers watch the sunset and moonrise and experience the threat of a looming storm. Views of Paris and the beautiful French and Belgian countryside below are also eloquently brought to life. 'The Trip of Le Horla' (1887) is perfect for fans of his short stories and readers of 19th-century travel books. Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) was a famous French writer, best known as one of the finest practitioners of the short story. Master of style and dramatic narrative, Maupassant’s stories are mainly interested in the relationships between men and women, often found at the crossroads of life. One of his greatest influences was Gustave Flaubert, who introduced him to some of the central names of the time, such as Émile Zola, Henry James, and Ivan Turgenev. Some of his best-known works include the novels "Bel Ami" and "Une Vie", more than 300 short stories, travel books, and even an attempt at poetry. ‘Bel Ami’ was made into a film in 2012, starring Uma Thurman, Robert Pattinson, and Kristin Scott Thomas.

mai. - Quelle journée admirable ! J'ai passé toute la matinée étendu sur l'herbe, devant ma maison, sous l'énorme platane qui la couvre, l'abrite et l'ombrage tout entière. J'aime ce pays, et j'aime y vivre parce que j'y ai mes racines, ces profondes et délicates racines, qui attachent un homme à la terre où sont nés et morts ses aïeux, qui l'attachent à ce qu'on pense et à ce qu'on mange, aux usages comme aux nourritures, aux locutions locales, aux intonations des paysans, aux odeurs du sol, des villages et de l'air lui-même. J'aime ma maison où j'ai grandi. De mes fenêtres, je vois la Seine qui coule, le long de mon jardin, derrière la route, presque chez moi, la grande et large Seine, qui va de Rouen au Havre, couverte de bateaux qui passent. A gauche, là-bas, Rouen, la vaste ville aux toits bleus, sous le peuple pointu des clochers gothiques. Ils sont innombrables, frêles ou larges, dominés par la flèche de fonte de la cathédrale, et pleins de cloches qui sonnent dans l'air bleu des belles matinées, jetant jusqu'à moi leur doux et lointain bourdonnement de fer, leur chant d'airain que la brise m'apporte, tantôt plus fort et tantôt plus affaibli, suivant qu'elle s'éveille ou s'assoupit. Comme il faisait bon ce matin ! Vers onze heures, un long convoi de navires, traînés par un remorqueur, gros comme une mouche, et qui râlait de peine en vomissant une fumée épaisse, défila devant ma grille. Après deux goëlettes anglaises, dont le pavillon rouge ondoyait sur le ciel, venait un superbe trois-mats brésilien, tout blanc, admirablement propre et luisant. Je le saluai, je ne sais pourquoi, tant ce navire me fit plaisir à voir. 12 mai. - J'ai un peu de fièvre depuis quelques jours; je me sens souffrant, ou plutôt je me sens triste. - Taken from "Le Horla" written by Guy de Maupassant
