Le Horla
by Guy de Maupassant, edited by Marie-Claire Bancquart
In this collection, Maupassant breathes new life into the fantastic. The supernatural, henceforth internalized, arises from the tormented conscience of the individual and everyday objects. Marie-Claire Bancquart shows how Maupassant’s fantastic aesthetic is based on his qualities as a realist storyteller.
