"The Diamond Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant portrays the complexities and
consequences of keeping up appearances in the 19th century. Mathilde is a
young and beautiful woman, struggling with the ordinary circumstances of her
life and marriage. When she is invited to a fancy ball with her husband, she
borrows a diamond necklace from a friend. To her horror, she finds the
necklace to be gone by the end of the night. The couple must now find a way to
quickly replace the necklace, but the cost turns out to be terribly high. The
story has inspired film adaptations, such as the silent film The Necklace
(1909).
