This collection of Balzac’s stories contains The Marriage Contract, a tragicomedy about money and marriage; Gobseck, in which Anastasie de Restaud enters into an unfortunate marriage—an aristocratic yet boring partnership without love or passion; and La Grenadiere.
About the author
Honore de Balzac (1799-1850) was one of the supreme French novelists. His monumental series of stories and novels, La Comedie humaine, was his masterwork—describing life in France in the post-Napoleonic era. Regarded as a founding father of realism, his characters were drawn with a depth previously absent from literature.
