Honoré de Balzac Volgorde van de boeken
Honoré de Balzac was een negentiende-eeuwse Franse romanschrijver en toneelschrijver wiens omvangrijke oeuvre een panorama schetst van het Franse leven in de periode na de val van Napoleon Bonaparte. Hij wordt erkend als een grondlegger van het Europese literaire realisme vanwege zijn scherpe oog voor detail en zijn onverbloemde weergave van de maatschappij. Balzac staat bekend om zijn veelzijdige personages, die complex, moreel ambigu en volkomen menselijk zijn, en zijn schrijfstijl verleent vaak zelfs levenloze objecten en de stad Parijs menselijke eigenschappen. Zijn literaire invloed strekte zich uit tot tal van beroemde auteurs en blijft schrijvers tot op de dag van vandaag inspireren.
