With a feather always perfect and so alive, Maupassant draws us irresistibly into a dark vortex and anguish. Madness which the author himself became a victim gradually over the years is echoed in this captivating text. Maybe that's why fantasy is felt here with such a vivid realism. This news is one of those rare literary jewels to be discovered in the best possible conditions (we discovers once). Also I recommend choosing a dark day, or the solitude of a night or a night to play it in the atmosphere it deserves.
