Honore de Balzac (1799 - 1850) was a French novelist and
playwright. His great work was a series of short stories and novels
collectively entitled La Comedie Humaine, which gives a picture of
swathes of French society in the years after the 1815 fall of
Napoleon Bonaparte. Balzac had plenty of experiences to draw upon,
he had been an apprentice in a law office, a publisher, printer,
businessman, critic, and politician and failed at all of these
pursuits. The novels reveal his difficulties with all these
careers. Many of these books have been adapted for the screen and
to this day they are a source of inspiration for writers,
filmmakers and critics. This volume includes twelve works in La
Comedie Humaine, in their recommended reading order: A Woman Of
Thirty, The Thirteen, The Girl With The Golden Eyes, The Two
Brothers, The Elixir Of Life, Catherine De' Medici, Eugenie
Grandet, Rise And Fall Of Cesar Birotteau, The Hidden Masterpiece,
Sarrasine, The Hated Son, Farewell
