L2L La Parure and Mademoiselle Fifi

“La Parure” and “Mademoiselle Fifi”

Guy de Maupassant

This week, Leigh and P. T. examine two more of Guy de Maupassant’s short stories, including “La Parure” or “The Necklace.” The plot has informed two stories by Somerset Maugham, one by Henry James, and a number of movies. As part of Listening to Literature’s new feature “In Their Own Words,” the cohosts will read “The Necklace” in full at the top of the hour.
