I kärlekens namn har generationer av franska författare försökt fånga det ogripbara – känslan som förvandlar, förblindar och förtär. I asken L’Amour samlas fyra berättelser från fyra epoker i den franska litteraturen, där kärleken visar sig i sina mest mångskiftande former – som begär och besatthet, frihet och fångenskap, trohet och förlust. Från Maupassants precisa realism och Prousts blick för kärlekens illusioner, till de Beauvoirs intellektuella skärpa och Sagans lekfulla självironi – här möter vi fyra författare som, var och en på sitt sätt, blottlägger hjärtats mysterium. Fyra noveller om längtan, sanning och den envisa passion som får oss att älska, gång på gång. Asken innehåller fyra böcker: Guy de Maupassant – Pauls flickaMarcel Proust – Madame de Breyves melankoliska sommar Francoise Sagan – Vänstra ögonlocket Simone de Beauvoir – Marcelle"Sällan har den hopplösa kärleken och svartsjukans tvärmörker skildrats bättre. Tål att läsas gång på gång" Svenska Dagbladet om Guy de Maupssants Pauls flicka "Novellen är ett mästerstycke" Svenska Dagbladet om Simone de Beauvoir Marcelle Novellix ger ut stora läsupplevelser i litet format! En novell per bok, och alltid med originalomslag av svenska formgivare, illustratörer och konstnärer. Novellerna säljs både styckvis och förpackade i fina presentaskar.

Novellsamlingen Fettpärlan av Guy de Maupassant i nyöversättning av Marie Berthelius som också skrivit det initierade efterordet. Berättelsen om Fettpärlan har kallats en av världens bästa noveller, blivit filmatiserad otaliga gånger i vitt skilda tappningar och efter metoo är den aktuellare än någonsin. Huvudpersonen Fettpärlan är prostituerad och har hamnat i samma vagn som de respektabla som rynkar på näsan åt henne. Färden går genom ett ihållande snöoväder med det tysk-franska kriget 1870 som omgivande ram och oroande bakgrund. De respektabla i kupén uttrycker med blickar och små diskreta men ändå bitska kommentarer att de egentligen borde ha förvägrat Fettpärlan att åka med i denna fina vagn. Föga anar de vad som strax ska ske. Något som kan fördärva deras liv fullkomligt – om inte Fettpärlan kan tänka sig att rädda hela sällskapet. Det är ju inte så mycket begärt. Hon behöver ju bara bjuda ut sig ännu en gång... Novellen publicerades 1880 och innebar Maupassants stora genombrott. Över en natt blev han hela det litterära Frankrikes gunstling. Han var då trettio år. När han dog av syfilis tretton år senare hade han författat närmare trehundra noveller, sex romaner och hundratalet essäer och tidningsartiklar. Han räknas som Frankrikes genom tiderna främste novellförfattare. Maupassants läromästare var Gustave Flaubert, som var barndomsvän med hans mor. Det var Flaubert som uppmuntrade den spirande författaren att satsa på prosan i stället för poesin och blev ett slags ställföreträdande far och mentor. Han uppmanade adepten att träna observationsförmågan, grundligt studera karakteristiska drag och ingående beskriva människor, djur och företeelser. Därefter skärskådades och kritiserades dessa skrivövningar med vändande post eller under långa textsamtal om söndagarna. Till vår volym har vi valt sju av Maupassants allra bästa noveller, här i nyöversättning av Marie Berthelius som också skrivit det initierade efterordet. Följande noveller ingår: Fettpärlan Ett Parisäventyr Mademoiselle Fifi Hårnålen Ånger Historien om en bondpiga Olivlunden.

"Finns det en mer våldsam känsla hos kvinnan än nyfikenheten?"Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) räknas som en av novellkonstens stora mästare. Hans flödande rika, ursprungliga berättartalang, som har få motstycken i världslitteraturen, ger hans verk en helt personlig karaktär. Trots den pessimistiska, genomskådande människouppfattning som kännetecknar hans noveller hör de tack vare humorn, den eleganta stilen och den spännande handlingen till det mest underhållande man kan läsa. Maupassant skrev inte mindre än 300 noveller och ett urval av dem är samlade här, dessutom skrev han ett antal romaner.

Fransmannen Guy de Maupassant kom att bli en förnyare av novellkonsten. Han skrev direkta, naturalistiska berättelser, och hans produktiva författarskap över 300 noveller - innefattar bland annat den välkända berättelsen “Fettpärlan”. Pauls flicka hör till de så kallade roddarnovellerna och är ett 1800-talsdrama där vi får möta den unge Paul, vars fästmö lämnar honom för en annan kvinna. Novellix ger här ut novellen i Hjalmar Söderbergs tidlösa översättning.Långsamt och värdigt som drottningar skred de fram genom etablissemanget. De tycktes stolta över sin ryktbarhet, lyckliga över att vara föremål för allas blickar och de kände sig stå högt över allt detta patrask.Madeleine och hennes älskare såg dem närma sig och det lyste upp en gnista i flickans ögon.När de två främsta hade kommit i närheten av deras bord, ropade Madeleine: Pauline!Pauls flicka är Novellix nr 53. Novellix ger ut noveller; nyskrivet och klassiker, en novell per bok. Novellerna finns i tre format - tryckt bok, e-bok och ljudbok. Du kan även prenumerera på dem. Läs mer på novellix.se

Guy de Maupassant kallas ofta den franska novellkonstens fader och mästare. Under sina blott tio år som verksam författare skrev han runt 300 noveller och därtill sex romaner. Stilistiskt var han sparsmakad och precis, tematiskt alltid präglad av en pessimistisk grundhållning. I hans skräcknoveller kommer fasan ofta inifrån och obehaget föds ur osäkerheten kring vad som är verkligt. Novellerna spänner över allt från klassiska spökhistorier och skräckromantik i den gotiska romanens efterföljd till fallbeskrivningar av enskilda galningar och vittnesmål från de mest ohyggliga mardrömstillstånd man kan tänka sig. I Mardrömmar presenteras ett urval av hans främsta skräcknoveller, bland annat den berömda Horla i två versioner. De är översatta av Hillevi Norburg som också skrivit förord, noter och kommentarer till utgåvan.

Han förde mig in i den gröna vagnen. "Ni kommer att få se besynnerliga saker", sade den gamle. Vid dessa ord upplystes rummet av ett klart men blodigt sken. Stödda mot väggarna stod hela rader av lik, gula, hemska, vanställda. Några gapskrattade, andra vred sig i dödsryckningar; några var nakna, andra i rika dräkter. Halvnakna häxor red på bockskelett, fasliga gnomer hakade sig fast i väggarna; över deras huvudskallar skakade en vampyr sina fantastiska vingar. Hela denna vidunderliga värld av orörliga och döda skuggbilder såg ut att vilja skrika och flyga. Ihåliga munnar och tomma ögongropar brann som om blodflammor rann i deras ådror. "Nog!" skrek jag. "Nog, för guds skull!" 30 klassiska rysare samlas här i en antologi fullmatad med fasor, övernaturliga mysterier och gravlika stämningar. Skräckens klassiker samsas sida vid sida med nyupptäckta häxmästare. Och inga av dessa noveller har översatts till svenska i modern tid -- allt kommer att vara lika fräscht och nytt för läsaren som en exklusiv, vällagrad mögelost!

Huset Tellier är en av Maupassants mest kända novellsamlingar. Här finns det sluga bönder och aspirerande, mediokra borgarbrackor i en hänsynslös värld. Det skildras med en ironisk skärpa, samtidigt som man kan uppfatta en viss medkänsla för de utsatta. -

Set in the Paris of society women, prostitutes and small-minded bourgeousie, and the isolated villages of rural Normandy that de Maupassant knew as a child, the thirty-three tales in this volume are among the most darkly humorous and brilliant short stories in nineteenth-century literature. They focus on the relationships between men and women, as in the poignant fantasy of 'A Parisian Affair', between brothers and sisters, and between masters and servants. Through these relationships, Maupassant explores the dualistic nature of the human character and his stories reveal both nobility, civility and generosity, and, in stories such as 'At Sea' and 'Boule de Suif', vanity, greed and hypocrisy. Maupassant's stories repeatedly lay humanity bare with deft wit and devastating honesty.

`every heart imagines itself the first to thrill to a myriad sensations which once stirred the hearts of the earliest creatures and which will again stir the hearts of the last men and women to walk the earth'' What is a life? How shall a storyteller conceive a life? What if art means pattern and life has none? How, then, can any story be true to life? These are some of the questions which inform the first of Maupassant''s six novels, A Life (Une Vie) (1883) in which he sought to parody and expose the folly of romantic illusion. An unflinching presentation of a woman''s life of failure and disappointments, where fulfilment and happiness might have been expected, A Life recounts Jeanne de Lamare''s gradual lapse into a state of disillusion. With its intricate network of parallels and oppositions, A Life reflects the influence of Flaubert in its attention to form and its coherent structure. It also expresses Maupassant''s characteristic naturalistic vision in which the satire of bourgeois manners, the representation of the aristocracy in pathological decline, the undermining of human individuality and ideals, and the study of deterioration and disintegration, all play a role. But above all Maupassant brings to his first novel the short story writer''s genius for a focused tension between stasis and change, and A Life is one of his most compelling portraits of dispossession and powerlessness.

''His rise testifies to the decline of a whole society.'' Jean-Paul SartreMaupassant''s second novel, Bel-Ami (1885) is the story of a ruthlessly ambitious young man (Georges Duroy, christened ''Bel-Ami'' by his female admirers) making it to the top in fin-de-siècle Paris. It is a novel about money, sex, and power, set against the background of the politics of the French colonization of North Africa. It explores the dynamics of an urban society uncomfortably close to our own and is a devastating satire of the sleaziness of contemporaryjournalism.Bel-Ami enjoys the status of an authentic record of the apotheosis of bourgeois capitalism under the Third Republic. But the creative tension between its analysis of modern behaviour and its identifiably late nineteenth-century fabric is one of the reasons why Bel-Ami remains one of the finest French novels of its time, as well as being recognized as Maupassant''s greatest achievement as a novelist.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

''Monsieur de Maupassant has never before been so clever.'' Henry JamesHenry James''s admiration for ''this masterly little novel'' has been echoed throughout the twentieth century by readers of Pierre et Jean. It marked a turning-point in the development of French fiction, situated as it is between traditional social realism and the psychological novel. It is recognized as a classic study of filial jealousy, triggered by one of the two brothers of its title finding himself the sole inheritor of the fortune of his mother''s former lover.Pierre et Jean is set in Le Havre in the 1880s and is notable for its evocation of the Normandy coastline captured by the Impressionists. But Maupassant''s achievement is to have woven from this simple plot in a maritime context a brilliantly crafted exploration of the complexities at the heart of family life.

'It was raining as it only rains in Normandy, as though great gouts of water were being sprayed by some angry, giant hand.'Maupassant believed that we delude ourselves into believing that we are not animals acting upon instinct but rational creatures capable of idealistic beliefs and actions and survive only on the drug of self-deception. Maupassant's disgust with creation was only equalled by his contempt for human hypocrisy, and in these tales he takes a scalpel to our illusions and cuts to the bone. But his clinical pessimism is redeemed by a sense of the absurd and a warmer compassion for 'humanity bleeding'. Unsentimental but always honest, he persuades us that life is an incomprehensible, cosmic farce. This translation of twenty tales shows Maupassant at his bitter, bawdy, chilling best. It features some of his grimmest and most famous stories such as A Vendetta and The Grove of Olives, and it also reflects both his moods and his mastery of the short story. The Little Keg is rich in comic invention, while the disturbing Who Can Tell? draws its power from the strange forces which drove its author into madness.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.
