"Something that he was going to say was cut short in his throat, and he sat
there with his mouth half open and a terrible look in his eyes." A group of
vulgar and disrespectful Prussian soldiers have seized a beautiful manor in
Normandy, passing endless days with drinking, womanizing and vandalising. The
worst of the soldiers is a man who goes by the name ''Mademoiselle Fifi" and
he thinks he can get away with just about anything. But when he tries to have
his way with a Jewish sex worker named Rachel, he has another thing coming. In
'Mademoiselle Fifi', the little guy – or girl – wins, which makes for a
satisfying reading experience. The short story was adapted to screen in 1944
by Robert Wise, who would later go on to direct the Oscar winning movies 'West
Side Story' (1961) and 'The Sound of Music' (1965). Guy de Maupassant (1850 –
1893) was a French author and one of the fathers of the modern short story.
His mother, Laure Le Poittevin, was an extremely well-read woman and
introduced him to literature at a young age. Maupassant wrote six novels and
over 300 short stories, the first and most famous being 'Boule de Suif'
(1880).
