Set against the backdrop of post-Napoleonic France, Balzac's La Comédie humaine offers a detailed and unfiltered portrayal of society through a vast array of complex, morally ambiguous characters. His keen observational skills breathe life into both people and inanimate objects, with Paris itself becoming a character within the narrative. Recognized as a pioneer of realism, Balzac's influence extends to numerous prominent writers and filmmakers, solidifying his legacy in the literary world.
