Résumé

Guy de Maupassant's short story "The Night: A Nightmare" depicts a vivid portrayal of the streets of Paris. Our narrator roams the streets of the city after hours, embracing and explaining his love of night as he goes. Yet this time, the night takes a more a menacing turn and soon becomes a living nightmare for him. Maupassant 's story plunges into the darker places of the human psyche with colorful storytelling, taking the reader on a nocturnal and personal tour of historical 19th-century Paris landmarks.

Auteur

Guy de Maupassant (auteur)

Né en 1850 au château de Miromesnil près de Dieppe, Guy de Maupassant est un maître incontesté de la nouvelle. Ses œuvres ont le plus souvent été publiées dans des journaux avant d’être reprises en recueil. Son regard ironique et acéré s’exerce dans différentes directions. Il croque la vie paysanne comme dans La Bête à Mait’ Belhomme ou Coco. Il sait également émouvoir le lecteur en quelques pages qui retrace une vie, qu’il s’agisse de la vie gâchée d’une jeune femme (La parure) ou de l’histoire d’un cheval (Coco). Grand voyageur, Maupassant ne dédaigne pas le pittoresque noir, comme dans la nouvelle corse Une vendetta. La fin de sa vie est marquée par des désordres psychiques, comme en témoignent ses récits fantastiques. Il meurt fou à Paris, en 1893, à 43 ans.

I began this journey a few years ago as a medium. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that would lead me to be able to hear G-D, Jesus and some Arch Angels. I started getting messages that I needed to go out on the beach at sunrise, and to bring my tablet, more commonly known as a notebook. I would walk up and down the beach thinking I would see something like the burning bush, but that didnt happen. It couldnt be as simple as that. I needed to sit down with my tablet and start writing what I heard. I soon realized I was going to have to work hard for this. Almost every morning I would sit down either at the beach or later in my house, to listen to the great spirits tell me their wisdom. It would take a full year to put together this book. I asked G-D why me? Im not a bible scholar or anyone of great importance. Im just an average housewife and mother. He told me the meek shall inherent the earth.Dori Green Morris
