About this ebook

The Grandet family is violently out of the ordinary, since the sudden arrival of his late Cousin Charles Eugenie, recently orphaned and without money. Eugenie's emotional awakening, stimulated by her love for her cousin, leads to a direct conflict with her father, whose smart and financial success matched her determination to rebel. The moving story of Eugenie is placed in the background of provincial oppression and the functioning of the financial system following the French Revolution. It is both a fascinating portrait of private life and a vigorous fictional document of his age.

Honoré de Balzac

Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) was a French novelist, short story writer, and playwright. Regarded as one of the key figures of French and European literature, Balzac’s realist approach to writing would influence Charles Dickens, Émile Zola, Henry James, Gustave Flaubert, and Karl Marx. With a precocious attitude and fierce intellect, Balzac struggled first in school and then in business before dedicating himself to the pursuit of writing as both an art and a profession. His distinctly industrious work routine—he spent hours each day writing furiously by hand and made extensive edits during the publication process—led to a prodigious output of dozens of novels, stories, plays, and novellas. La Comédie humaine, Balzac’s most famous work, is a sequence of 91 finished and 46 unfinished stories, novels, and essays with which he attempted to realistically and exhaustively portray every aspect of French society during the early-nineteenth century.
