Hardback. Condition: Good. Honore de Balzac was one of the greatest storytellers who ever lived, and now at last he has a biography that tells his story in a way Balzac himself would have loved with all the ambiguities, the flaws, the illusions and myths, the realities of street and salon, the loves and affairs, and above all the imperishable stories that still have the power to make us laugh out loud in one minute and weep in the next. Robb has given us a splendid tale, meticulously researched, lovingly put together, and beautifully told. Those who know Balzac will not be able to put his book down; those who don t know him will rush from this biography to the literary treasures created by the writer Robb describes for us in prose that does justice to its subject.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is the first English biography of Balzac for over fifty years. Robb follows Balzac's early literary disappointments and his relentless struggle against debts; shows how he developed his notorious powers of hard work and concentration in his early twenties by churning out a factory line of cheap, melodramatic novels. His desire for literary success and wealth led to a variety of entrepreneurial schemes and his private life became a series of public misadventures. Robb skilfully interweaves the life with the work to paint an indelible and important portrait of the one of the most influential figures of nineteenth French century literature.
