Eugenie Grandet
Eugénie is the daughter of Felix Grandet, a businessman and landowner whose extravagant wealth is matched only by his commitment to miserliness. The Grandets are by far the richest family in Saumur, and their house is, from the outside, the finest building around-but inside, both the state of the home and the physical and mental wellbeing of its occupants have been neglected to the point of disrepair. As suitors come to the Grandet house to vie for Eugénie's hand-and, by proxy, her grand inheritance-a portrait of humanity at its basest is formed that no reader will soon forget.

Über den Autor
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.
