Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cousin Pons, And, Old Goriot One of the last and largest of Balzac's great works - the very last of them, if we except La Cousine Bette, to which it is pendant and contrast - Le Cousin Pons has always united sufirages from very different classes of admirers. In the first place, it is not disagreeable, as the common euphemism has it, and as La Cousine Bette certainly is. In the second, it cannot be accused of being a berguinade, as those who like Balzac best when he is doing moral rag picking are apt to describe books like Le Medecin de Campagne and Le Lys dans la Vallee, if not even like Eugenie Grandet. It has a considerable variety of inter est; its central figure is curiously pathetic and attractive, even though the curse of something like folly, which so often attends Balzac's good characters, may a little weigh on him. It would be a book of exceptional charm even if it were anonymous, or if we knew no more about the author than we know about Shakespeare.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father Goriot, today considered one of Balzac’s most important works, is part of his novel sequence The Human Comedy. It’s the first of Balzac’s novels to feature recurring characters, a technique that he famously developed in his subsequent novels. Set in Paris during the Bourbon Restoration of the early 1800s, Father Goriot follows Eugène de Rastignac, a student born to noble roots but little means, as he tries to climb the social ladder in Paris. The impoverished Goriot is staying at the same boardinghouse as Rastignac—and Rastignac sees opportunity in Goriot’s richly-married and elegant daughters. The novel has been widely praised for its realist portrayal of Parisian life of various social classes, and its deep influence on French literature is still felt today. While it had chapter breaks when it was initially serialized, Balzac removed them when compiling his definitive edition of The Human Comedy, a change that is preserved in this edition. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

The disappointment piqued his ranity. My claim to your confidence is very small, madame, ' he said, after rallying her on her abstracted mood; 'but if I am in the way, please tell me so frankly; I count on your good faith.' 'No, stay with me, ' she said; I shall be all alone if you go. Nucingen is dining in town, and I do not want to be alone; I want to be taken out of myself.' 'But what is the matter?' You are the very last person whom I should tell, ' she exclaimed. 'Then I am connected in some way with this secret I wonder what it is.' 'Perhaps. Yet, no, ' she went on; it is a domestic quarrel, which ought to be buried in the depths of the heart. I am very unhappy; did I not tell you so the day before yesterday? Golden chains are the heaviest of all fetters." When a woman tells a young man that she is very unhappy, and when the young man is clever, and well dressed, and has fifteen hundred francs lying idle in his pocket, he is sure to think as Eugene said, and he becomes a coxcomb. 'What can you have left to wish for?' he answered. 'You are young, beautiful, beloved, and rich.' 'Do not let us talk of my affairs, ' she said, shaking her head mournfully. 'We will dine together tete-a-tete, and afterwards we will go to hear the most exquisite music. Am I to your taste?' she went on, rising and displaying her gown of white cashmere, covered with Persian designs in the most superb taste. '1 wish that you were altogether mine, ' said Eugene; 'you are charming.' You would have a forlorn piece of property, ' she said, smiling bitterly. 'There is nothing about me that betrays my wretchedness; and yet, in spite of appearances, I am in despair. I cannot sleep; my troubles have broken my night's rest; I shall...

Book excerpt: Considered to be one of Balzac's most important works, "Old Goriot", or "Père Goriot", is the story of its title character Goriot; a mysterious criminal-in-hiding named Vautrin; and a naive law student named Eugène de Rastignac. We are introduced to the characters at Maison Vauquer, a boarding house owned by the widow Madame Vauquer. Central to the theme of the book is the struggle to achieve upper-class status in society. Rastignac is eager to achieve this upper-class standing but is unfamiliar to the ways of Parisian society. Vautrin tries to convince Rastignac to pursue an unmarried woman named Victorine, a dubious suggestion which involves the disposal of her brother who blocks the woman's fortune. The failings to achieve this upper-class status are exemplified by Goriot who has bankrupted himself to support his two well-married daughters, yet they reject him. A classic and tragic story, "Old Goriot" is one of the most pivotal works in Balzac's sweeping novel sequence "La Comédie Humaine", which endeavors to depict the effects of society on the entirety of the human condition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father Goriot by Honore de Balzac and translated by Ellen Marriage. Le Pere Goriot is an 1835 novel by French novelist and playwright Honore de Balzac (1799-1850), included in the Scenes de la vie privee section of his novel sequence La Comedie humaine. Set in Paris in 1819, it follows the intertwined lives of three characters: the elderly doting Goriot; a mysterious criminal-in-hiding named Vautrin; and a naive law student named Eugène de Rastignac. Le Père Goriot begins in June 1819, following Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo, after the House of Bourbon had been restored to the throne of France. Tension was mounting between the aristocracy, which had returned with King Louis XVIII, and the bourgeoisie produced by the Industrial Revolution. During this era, France saw a tightening of social structures, with a lower class steeped in overwhelming poverty. By one estimate, almost three-quarters of Parisians did not make the 500-600 francs a year required for a minimal standard of living. At the same time, this upheaval made possible a social mobility unthinkable during the Ancien Regime of previous centuries. Individuals willing to adapt themselves to the rules of this new society could sometimes ascend into its upper echelons from modest backgrounds, much to the distaste of the established wealthy class.
