About this ebook
Balzac sigue con esa su disección de los solteros. Esta vez el insecto analizado con ese esmero que sólo es posible tener por este gran entomólogo, es una dueña de pensión -la Srta. Gamard- que alquila sus dos habitaciones a los eclesiásticos Birotteau y Troubert.
Al vicario Birotteau se le puede aplicar aquello de bienaventurados los pobres de espíritu y en su virtud seguramente le corresponderá el paraíso. Pero nos dice Balzac que como muchos tontos, no pueden aguantar el tedio que le producen otros tontos
About the author
Born on May 20, 1799, Honore de Balzac is considered one of the greatest French writers of all time. Balzac studied in Paris and worked as a law clerk while pursuing an unsuccessful career as an author. He soon accumulated enormous debts that haunted him most of his life. A prolific writer, Balzac would often write for 14 to-16 hours at a time. His writing is marked by realistic portrayals of ordinary, but exaggerated characters and intricate detail. In 1834, Balzac began organizing his works into a collection called The Human Comedy, an attempt to group his novels to present a complete social history of France. Characters in this project reappeared throughout various volumes, which ultimately consisted of approximately 90 works. Some of his works include Cesar Birotteau, Le Cousin Pons, Seraphita, and Le Cousine Bette. Balzac wed his lifelong love, Eveline Hanska in March 1850 although he was gravely ill at the time. Balzac died in August of that year.
