The Diamond Necklace
(Guy de Maupassant)
The Diamond necklace called as one of the best short stories so far in the world of writing. This story tells us about our lives only. There are twists and turns in our lives, which we do not know. It is a simple yet powerful expression of the destiny of a woman. Clearly and lucidly stated, the human life, its normal human feeling are depicted in it. The story is about a lady who alwaysloved her ownbeauty. She wanted to live a life full of eye catching fancy. But she was married to a man who was not able to provide her with all these. One day she and her husband had to go toa party. She borrowed a necklace from her friend. the necklace was supposed to be diamond one. She enjoyed a lot in the party. Evenetually she lost the necklace. Even after searching for a long time, they could not find it. Ultimately, they bought one diamond necklace same as that of her friend, and returned it to her friend. For repaying the debt, they had to put next several years earnings. Now she looked old and her beauty was gone, when one day she met her old friend and found out that the necklace she lost was not a diamond necklace, rather was a ordinary one.
The whole story is a replica of life story of a general human. We have our wants, wishes and in some case in order to fulfill that we have to do what we do not want to. Life plays with us and we act as puppets. If we can control our unlimited wishes we can be happy. Our unlimited wishes can lead us to destruction.
