“ The Necklace” is a short story written by Maupassant. “ The Necklace” tells the story of Madame Mathilde Loisel and her husband. Mathilde was an ordinary woman who always imagined herself in a high social position with an extravagant life. In order to look her finest at the ball, she borrowed a diamond necklace from her friend. However, she lost it. So she and her husband had to buy a same one by borrowing lots of money.
