OP Guy de Maupassant, regarded as one of the masters of the short-story, holds a literary reputation akin to Poe for his tales of horror (the 19th Century French "Poe" if you will). And while his literary reputation has never diminished, his visibility seems to wan as time goes by. So here is a link to my favorite de Maupassant story, The Horla, a complete collection of his short-stories, and bio. Enjoy! A good read for October! But an author not to be missed by any true literature lover at any time! (his stories tend to be short, tight works, BTW...a quick read)
