Born in 1850, it is believed that he breathed his first
breath at the Chateau de Miromesniel, Dieppe, Maupassant
was a most extraordinary writer. He brings his
characters alive in all the shame and humanity, judging
them not - he leaves that to you. The writing of Guy
de Maupassant will enthrall you; it's both compelling, and
beautiful. To learn how to write, he wrote out,
actually copied by hand, the books that he most loved,
believing this would teach him how to put sentences,
worth reading, together. A remarkable writer,
with a remarkable personal story. |
