It is often the most humble men that are the most dangerous. Central Corsica
is dangerous. There is no question about that. Despite its beautiful scenery,
the area is rife with bandits, mongrels, and crime. Whilst money is important,
secrets are much more valuable. The quietest, almost silent villager is a
source of interest for the entire of Corsica - they know he has secrets. But
are they truly ready to find out who he really is? This dynamic tale is an
entertaining introduction to Guy de Maupassant for fans of classic adventure
fiction. Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) was one of the finest practitioners of
the French short story. He was considered a master of both style and dramatic
narrative. A representative of the Naturalist school, he wrote 300 short
stories during his career - alongside a number of novels, travel books, and a
volume of verse. The most notable of his work is considered to be his first
short story - ‘Boule de Suif’. His volumes of short stories were heavily
influential, with one of them acting as inspiration for John Ford’s
‘Stagecoach’.
