    Excerpt from The Two BrothersIN 1792 the townsmorfle 'of Issoudun enjoyed 'the services of a physician named Rouget, whom they held 'to be a man of consummate malignity. Were we to believe certain bold tongues, he made his Wife extremely unhappy, although she was the most beautiful woman 'of the neighborhood. Perhaps, indeed, she 'was rather silly. But the prying of friends, the slander of enemies, 'and the gossip of acquaintances, had never succeeded in laying bare the interior of that household. Doctor 'rouget was a man of Whom we say in common par huw, 'he is not pleasant to deal with. Gonse quently, during his lifetime, his townsmen kept silence about him and treated him 'civilly.

    Honoré Balzac

    (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Sept. 2, 2018)
    This is the best side to be released if Balzac has not read at all. The narrative has a bit of everything that makes it an undeniable recital, including some very fast impressions. The essayist bogs down half a dozen pages at the beginning, discussing the kinship connections to sanction the set. Do not worry about your attention to detail in that part. Continue and soon the key stars will be completely prole. Since then, it is a fascinating life, excellent to interpret. As always, Balzac, the narrator, offers a penetrating hallucination of the proceeding released in the time of narrating the chimera. It is fascinating to know how little it has changed in the last 150 years in regard to human nature.

    In 1792 the townspeople of Issoudun enjoyed the services of a physician named Rouget, whom they held to be a man of consummate malignity. Were we to believe certain bold tongues, he made his wife extremely unhappy, although she was the most beautiful woman of the neighborhood. Perhaps, indeed, she was rather silly. But the prying of friends, the slander of enemies, and the gossip of acquaintances, had never succeeded in laying bare the interior of that household. Doctor Rouget was a man of whom we say in common parlance, “He is not pleasant to deal with.” Consequently, during his lifetime, his townsmen kept silence about him and treated him civilly. His wife, a demoiselle Descoings, feeble in health during her girlhood (which was said to be a reason why the doctor married her), gave birth to a son, and also to a daughter who arrived, unexpectedly, ten years after her brother, and whose birth took the husband, doctor though he were, by surprise. This late-comer was named Agathe.

    Honoré de Balzac

    (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, June 11, 2018)
    Honoré de Balzac, born Honoré Balzac, 20 May 1799 – 18 August 1850) was a French novelist and playwright. The novel sequence La Comédie humaine, which presents a panorama of post-Napoleonic French life, is generally viewed as his magnum opus. Owing to his keen observation of detail and unfiltered representation of society, Balzac is regarded as one of the founders of realism in European literature.[3] He is renowned for his multi-faceted characters; even his lesser characters are complex, morally ambiguous and fully human. Inanimate objects are imbued with character as well; the city of Paris, a backdrop for much of his writing, takes on many human qualities. His writing influenced many famous writers, including the novelists Émile Zola, Charles Dickens, Gustave Flaubert, Jack Kerouac, and Henry James, filmmakers Akira Kurosawa and Eric Rohmer as well as important philosophers such as Friedrich Engels. Many of Balzac's works have been made into films, and they continue to inspire other writers.
