The Necklace (La Parure) by Guy de Maupassant, 1884, translated by David Coward. The translation is in copyright (©); the anthology reproduces it by permission of Oxford University Press and prints no © notice naming a holder, so none is named here. From A Day in the Country and Other Stories, Oxford University Press, 2009, pp. 168-176 (the collection was first published by Oxford University Press in 1990), as printed in the Pearson Edexcel International GCSE English Anthology (Issue 8, February 2026).
