Honor? de Balzac (1799 - 1850) was a French novelist and playwright. His great work was a series of short stories and novels collectively entitled La Com?die 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 ten works in La Com?die Humaine, in their recommended reading order: The Duchesse Of Langeais, Madame Firmiani, Sons Of The Soil, Scenes From A Courtesan's Life, Modeste Mignon, The Purse, The Ball At Sceaux, The Marriage Contract, Gobseck, The Deserted Woman
