"Vers la fin de l'année 1612, par une froide matinée de décembre, un jeune homme dont le vêtement était de très mince apparence, se promenait devant la porte d'une maison située rue des Grands-Augustins, à Paris. Après avoir assez longtemps marché dans cette rue avec l'irrésolution d'un amant qui n'ose se présenter chez sa première maîtresse, quelque facile qu'elle soit, il finit par franchir le seuil de cette porte, et demanda si maître François Porbus était en son logis."

Story
Le père d'Eugénie Grandet a été tonnelier. Grâce à un sens aigu des affaires et une grande avarice, il a réussi à faire fortune en profitant des événements de cette époque instable. Autrefois maire de Saumur, il fait maintenant fructifier sa grande fortune tout en faisant croire à sa femme et à sa fille qu'ils ne sont pas bien riches. Les habitants de Saumur, plus au courant de la fortune du père Grandet, voient en sa fille Eugénie le plus beau parti de la ville et la courtisent donc ardemment.

Story
"La femme de trente ans" évoque la condition féminine au travers du récit d'un mariage qui échoue. Julie de Chastillon est une jeune femme poussée trop vite dans le mariage et en quête permanente d'une rencontre amoureuse digne d'être vécue, elle devient adultère. Entre les déceptions dans l'intimité conjugale et le devoir de garder les apparences en société, Balzac nous fait le récit parfaitement réaliste d'une jeune femme "à qui le mariage ne [...] réussit point".

Story
Obra maestra de Balzac, Las ilusiones perdidas cuenta la historia de un joven de provincias con ambiciones artísticas que sueña con triunfar en París. La odisea de Lucien Rubempré desde la inocencia de su Angulema natal hasta el fango del fracaso constituye uno de los periplos narrativos más audaces, embelesadores e imponentes de la narrativa del siglo XIX. Crónica de toda una época, elegía y recuerdo de los perdidos sueños de juventud, esta novela, apoteosis y a la vez síntesis de La comedia humana, ha consolidado con el tiempo el vigor de su intimidante grandeza.

Story
Our ‘fight of flight’ response is something hardwired into the primitive part of our brain. Our need to survive, to outlive whatever danger poses, that immediate threat to our lives is little short of a marvel. Everything else is abandoned in order to survive. Whilst in modern times that ability has been somewhat modified and ‘reasoned’ away to an extent, in past years it’s what usually kept you alive. In this volume people struggle valiantly to survive and to exist no matter the extent of the threat they face.

Story
Quand Balzac publie en 1835 "Le Contrat de Mariage", il publie un roman de formation, un roman stratégique, un roman social, mais surtout une critique acerbe et lucide de sa société, faite de rivalités, d’intérêts, de rapports de forces... L'auteur y fait montre de son génie de l'observation du monde qu'il fréquente, décrivant les trois vices du monde, le plaisir, l'argent et la puissance. À travers l'histoire de ce mariage ruiné et vicié par l'hypocrisie, les mensonges, la haine, Balzac distille également ses conseils maritaux, se montrant très virulent à l'encontre des mœurs de sa société.

"Le chef d'œuvre inconnu" a inspiré nombre de peintres, notamment Picasso, et de cinéastes ("La Belle Noiseuse" de Jacques Rivette - 1991). Ce "conte fantastique" à la manière d'Hoffmann est aussi une belle méditation sur la création, la recherche initiatique de l'absolu et le pouvoir de l'esprit dans le domaine de l'art.
