More about the book
Balzac was the living manifestation of the colourful and varied world he described. Compared to Balzac, Flaubert, Henry James and Tolstoy are mere observers. Like the arch-criminal Vantrin, Balzac was an expert in manipulation, he was a passionate collector, a perfect companion and like Baron Hulot, he was a relentless seducer.
