Sobre este artículo
Paris: Calmann Levy, 1882. Leather. Near Fine. 6" by 4". None. A near fine, leather bound copy of Honoré de Balzac's novel. A leather bound copy of Honoré de Balzac's novel The Splendours and Miseries of Courtesans. Published in French. Divided into four parts, the novel continues the story of Lucien de Rubempré and his attempts to extrapolate money from a rich Baron. The novel forms part of Balzac's La Comédie Humaine, a multi-volume collection of interlinked stories depicting French society in the first half of the nineteenth century. Balzac is often regarded as one of the founders of realism in European literature due to his keen observation of detail and unfiltered representation of society, with complex, often morally ambiguous characters. Rebound in a green calf binding over red patterned boards. Externally, lovely, with just some light rubbing to the boards, and the tail of the spine. Internally, firmly bound with bright and clean pages. Near Fine
