Guy de Maupassant was a popular 19th-century French writer. He is considered one of the fathers of the modern short story. As a protégé of Flaubert, his short stories are characterized by their economy of style and their efficient effortless resolution. A Piece of String is one of his most famous stories and deals in a very touching way with perception versus reality.Public Domain (P)1978 Jimcin Recordings
