«Le Papa de Simon et autres nouvelles», by Guy de Maupassant, is a collection of short stories in French published by Flammarion in paperback (128 pages).
The story that gives the volume its title presents Simon, a fatherless boy who suffers the mockery of his classmates until a blacksmith from the village crosses his path. The other stories portray childhoods where innocence coexists with jealousy, cruelty, anguish and abandonment, and show how the harshness of reality prevails over the little ones.
The volume was published in 2012 in the Étonnants classiques collection, with the complete text and a study guide with notes and exercises.
Aimed at secondary school students and readers of classic French literature.
Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant was a 19th-century French author, celebrated as a master of the short story and associated with the naturalist literary school of thought, depicting human lives, destinies, and social forces in disillusioned and often pessimistic terms.
