Henri-René-Albert-Guy de Maupassant was born on 5 August 1850 at the late 16th-century Château de Miromesnil (near Dieppe in the Seine-Inférieure (now Seine-Maritime) Department, France), the elder son of Gustave de Maupassant (1821–99) and Laure Le Poittevin, [6] whose family hailed from the prosperous bourgeoisie.
The book established Maupassant as a prominent French writer following the success of his first short story, "Boule de suif". Five of the eight stories in the collection had already been published in various magazines, like Revue politique et littéraire and La Vie Moderne , and three were originals.
