Honoré de Balzac was a realist writer in France during the 1800s. This novel is set in France after the Revolution. This book will make more sense if one knows a tiny bit about the French Revolution and can start the book in a quiet frame of mind, with at least an hour and a beverage handy, as Balzac crams an incredible amount of backstory and foundation into the first pages. Balzac was an interesting man and a formidable and tenacious writer. The book isn't for everyone but it is part of the classic literature of France.

Autorenporträt
Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) was a French novelist and playwright who stands as a pivotal figure in the history of European literature. An iconic member of the realist school of literary realism, his vast collection of works known as 'La Comédie Humaine' offers a panoramic view of French society in the time after the fall of Napoleon. Within this extensive canvas, 'The Collection of Antiquities' stands out as a piece that brilliantly reflects the subtle shifts of power and class dynamics in provincial French towns during the Restoration period. Balzac's sharp observation and detailed character studies were instrumental in influencing the development of the novel as a literary form. His humanistic style marries keen psychological insights with a profound understanding of the social currents shaping the lives of his characters, elements that are expertly portrayed in 'The Collection of Antiquities'. Balzac's ability to construct intricate narratives that echo the complexities of real life endured through centuries and forged a path for subsequent writers in the genre. His legacy persists in the echoes of his influence found in the works of Charles Dickens, Marcel Proust, and many other literary giants who cite him as a foundational inspiration. Balzac's dedication to his craft saw him writing for long hours, driven by a passion that ensured his presence in the literary canon as a master of his art.
