«La casa Tellier y otros cuentos eróticos» is a collection of short stories by Guy de Maupassant, published by Alianza Editorial in 1989 in paperback (225 pages, in Spanish).
It brings together twenty-three stories written between 1881 and 1889, with love as the central theme and village or countryside settings. It portrays prostitutes on a day off, provincial women seeking forbidden relationships, and women of unusually delicate morals; many stories start from a simple situation and use a narrator who addresses his audience.
It belongs to the «El Libro de Bolsillo» collection from Alianza Editorial (Classics section, no. 877) and is the sixth and final volume of Maupassant's story series, translated by Esther Benítez.
This volume will be appreciated by those who enjoy nineteenth-century French realist short fiction and Maupassant's brief narrative.
Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant was a 19th-century French author, celebrated as a master of the short story and associated with the naturalist literary school of thought, depicting human lives, destinies, and social forces in disillusioned and often pessimistic terms.
