Oliver Montgomery
This is a story from the Normandy Stories collection.
Maupassant is hailed as one of the greatest masters of the short story. This collection focuses upon the land he knew and loved so well - Normandy. Its people and its countryside are portrayed here in vivid color and with great warmth. Amusing, saucy, and sometimes even farcical they may be, but they are also capable of great pathos, often branching off to end tragically. It is this skilful and affecting blend of tragedy and comedy, of tears and laughter, which make Maupassant's Normandy Stories the enduring favorites they are today.

Boniface is on his daily route when he stops to read a gruesome story of a murder. He is so upset by the details that when he arrives at the next house and hears loud moaning from inside, he is certain he's overheard a brutal crime. Boniface flees to the police, who accompany him back to the house and discover a far more innocuous act occurring. Guy de Maupassant's short story is masterfully constructed and delivered perfectly by Oliver Montgomery, whose precise performance immaculately builds an ominous tension that eventually dissolves into a fit of uncontained hilarity.
