As a schoolboy, he was very much interested in literature(文学), and won a prize for
one of his poems. So his writing began at an early age, and he became a famous novelist in his thirties. Most of his works were about everyday life of the people of low social rank. As he had worked in government departments since 1871, he knew well about the life of government workers. And this experience helped him create his best short story “The Diamond Necklace”. His writing
style was direct and simple. All these can be seen from the play we are going to learn.
Maupassant suffered a great deal from illness in his later life. He only lived for 43 years and died in Paris in 1893. He had a short life, but his works will last forever.
