by Honoré de Balzac (Author)

Eugénie Grandet is a profound exploration of greed, family dynamics, and the complexities of human nature set in the provincial town of Saumur. Through the character of Felix Grandet, the story delves into the life of a wealthy miser whose immense wealth dictates the fate of his kind-hearted daughter, Eugénie. The narrative intricately portrays the societal expectations and the moral dilemmas faced by individuals caught in the web of familial loyalty, love, and the relentless pursuit of wealth.


Eugénie Grandet is significant in literary history as part of Honoré de Balzac's grand project, La Comédie humaine, illustrating his detailed exploration of French society. Set in Saumur, near Balzac's childhood home of Tours, the novel offers a vivid portrayal of provincial life, reflecting the societal changes post-French Revolution and during the Bourbon Restoration. Honoré de Balzac masterfully critiques the societal norms and the corrupting influence of money, making Eugénie Grandet a timeless reflection on the human condition.

This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian-inspired dust jacket.
