En 1869 partió hacia París con la intención de estudiar Derecho pero la guerra franco-prusiana trastocará sus planes: se alistó como voluntario y combatió en Normandía. Acabada la guerra, de la mano de Flaubert, amigo de su madre, conoció en París a la sociedad literaria del momento; en 1880 publicó su cuento Bola de sebo en el volumen colectivo Las veladas de Médan, piedra fundacional del movimiento naturalista. Otros cuentos como los contenidos en La casa Tellier (1881) o Mademoiselle Fifi (1882) lo acreditaron como uno de los maestros del género, de modo que cuando en 1883 salió a la luz su primera novela, Una vida (ALBA CLÁSICA núm. XLI), ya era un escritor famoso. A esta novela siguieron otras de la talla de Bel Ami (1885; ALBA CLÁSICA núm. CXIX), Mont-Oriol (1887; ALBA CLÁSICA núm. II), Pierre y Jean (1888), Fuerte como la muerte (1889) y Nuestro corazón (1890; ALBA CLÁSICA núm. LXVI). Murió en París en 1893, víctima de una enfermedad hereditaria que lo llevó a la locura. «Maupassant –escribiría Joseph Conrad–, a quien se ha llamado maestro del mot juste, nunca ha sido un mero tratante de palabras. Sus mercancías no han sido cuentas de vidrio sino pulidas gemas: quizá no las más raras y preciosas, pero sí con las mejores aguas de su género.»view less
