Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from The Physiology of Married Life, And, Petty Troubles of Married LifeIn all kindness, the Balzac novitiate is warned against beginning an acquaintance with the author through the medium of the Analytical Studies. He would be almost cer tain to misjudge Balzac's attitude, and might even be tempted to forsake his further cultivation. The mistake would be seri ous for the reader and unjust to the author. These studies are chie y valuable as outlining a peculiar - and, shall We say, forced - mood that sought expression in an isolated channel. All his life long, Balzac found time for miscellaneous writ ings - critiques, letters, reviews, essays, political diatribes and sketches. In early life they were his pot-boilers, and he never ceased writing them, probably urged partly by continued need of money, partly through fondness for this sort of thing. His Physiology is fairly representative of the material, being analysis in satirical vein of sundry foibles of society. This class of composition was very popular in the time of Louis Philippe.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
