Pierre & Jean est le troisième roman de Maupassant, écrit d'un seul trait durant l'été 1887. C'est une oeuvre naturaliste (ou réaliste-psychologique). Elle est composée du récit, mais également d'une célèbre préface intitulée « Le roman » dans laquelle Maupassant expose en quelques pages sa vision du roman naturaliste, qu'il propose de définir comme une étude psychologique dont Pierre et Jean se fera l'écho.

Guy de Maupassant

Guy de Maupassant was born in Normandy in 1850. In addition to his six novels, which include Bel-Ami (1885) and Pierre et Jean (1888), he wrote hundreds of short stories, the most famous of which is 'Boule de suif'.

By the late 1870s, he began to develop the first signs of syphilis, and in 1891 he was committed to an asylum in Paris, having tried to commit suicide. He died there two years later.
