Through the character of Mathilde,
Maupassant criticizes the human
tendency to care too much about
appearances.
Mathilde, who is married to a humble clerk,
is unhappy with her middle-class life. In an
attempt to appear rich and glamorous, she
borrows a diamond necklace from a friend
but ends up misplacing it. The struggle to
pay for the lost necklace traps Mathilde in
a life of poverty.
An Estonian proverb says, “Who does
not thank for little will not thank for
much.” This is especially true in the
case of Madame Mathilde, the
protagonist of French writer Guy de
Maupassant's short story “The Necklace.”
