Honoré de Balzac
Honoré the Balzac (1799-1850) was a French novelist, a native of Tours, in France. He is one of the most brilliant as well as prolific novelwriters of modern times. His productions are remarkable for their sense of reality. They show power of observation, warmth and fertility of imagination, and subtle and profound delineation of human passion, his design in producing them being to make them form part of one great work, "La Comédie Humaine," that is the collective name for his series containing ninety-one interconnected novels and stories, the whole being a minute dissection of the different classes of society.Wisdom & Quotes
