“AT the time when this story begins, the Stanhope press and inking-rollers were not yet in use in small provincial printing-offices.”
Honoré de Balzac was a French novelist and playwright. His magnum opus was a sequence of almost 100 novels and plays collectively entitled La Comédie humaine, which presents a panorama of French life in the years after the fall of Napoléon Bonaparte in 1815.
