Part of La Comédie Humaine
First published 2007
This 2007 Bibliobazaar edition restores Balzac's novel from a pre-1923 source, bringing back into print a work the publisher considers culturally significant. The text underwent quality assurance to remove digitization flaws, though some minor errors may remain that don't interfere with reading. This reproduction represents part of an ongoing effort to preserve printed works from around the world. The edition makes available again a Balzac work that might otherwise remain inaccessible to contemporary readers.
