The Necklace by Guy de Maupassant

From my opinion, this story is quiet okay and the people are categorized into many classes based on their reputation and wealth. I think money is everything for them at that century and people that are poor are trying hard to be the same level from the upper class. Actually, they should unite together in the country and help each other. I am very attracts to the husband character that is humble and will try everything that he could to make his wife pleased and happy. For an example, he would find some money for his wife to buy a dress for that party. It shows that he love her and doesn’t want to make his wife sad and cry. As his wife is too fussy about that party, he will try his best to make it happen. Love can make us do anything although it is impossible for some people. His wife had borrowed a necklace from her closest friend, and it is lost when they getting home. His wife should be more careful and not to be a careless person. She should notice when the necklace had missing. His husband try to search anywhere for that necklace because they got no money to replace it. It turns out, the necklace is really lost and they have to borrow some money from people at here and there. It is such a hard time for his husband. After they got replaced for that necklace, they got another problem to lay all the debts back. Why they didn’t just tell the truth at their friend? Now, they have to pay all the debts that cost more than a thousand. After ten years, she meets her friend back and tells the truth about the necklace. She was surprised to know the real price of that necklace. It cost lower than they think and the necklace it’s actually a limitation. I also was shock to know. From that, it is better that she tells the truth to her friend because she had suffered a lot within the ten years.
