Description
Coming to the cinema soon! The best novel by Balzac, according to Marcel Proust’s opinion!
A large-scale work from the cycle “The Human Comedy” tells of the agonizing path from poverty to fame and wealth of a poor yet talented poet, Lucien Chardon du Roubampre. A young provincial man arrives in Paris hoping to enter high society, but he’s in for disappointment: people laugh at him, and his books aren’t published. On this difficult path he will experience highs and lows, wealth and collapse, betrayal and an unexpected love…
Balzac skilfully and with sarcasm paints the full life of the capital—full of contrasts: luxurious aristocratic parties and impoverished bohemia; clever intrigues and boundless deceit. This big, important novel is deliciously unhurried—and yet it hasn’t lost any of its relevance. It’s a true “encyclopedia of French life,” revealing to readers how subtle mechanisms of society work.
In 2021 the novel was adapted for film by Gaumont (France, Belgium). In Russia, the film was released by the distribution company “White Nights.” Director: Xavier Giannoli. Starring: Benjamin Voisin, Cécile de France, Vincent Lacoste, Xavier Dolan, Gérard Depardieu, Jeanne Balibar. Photo credits: Laurent Lufroy / Couramiaud Photo: Roger Arpajou
