Hardcover. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. 1st Edition. 1958, 598pp. G+ in G, chipped and lightly torn dj. A biographical novel based on the life of Balzac, who never got around to writing his autobiography. From the dj: "If any French writer of the last century deserved to be called a Force of Nature, that was Balzac, author of the COMEDIE HUMAINE. At work he as a volcano, at play, a hurricane, in love, a story at sea. The key to his character was his vitality and it ran like a streak of lightning through everything he touched.".

VG+.* Illustrations: None.* Pages: 637 pp. text.* Description: An enthusiastic reader and independent thinker as a child, Balzac had trouble adapting to the teaching style of his grammar school. His wilful nature caused trouble throughout his life and frustrated his ambitions to succeed in the world of business. When he finished school, Balzac was an apprentice in a law office but he turned his back on the study of law after wearying of its inhumanity and banal routine. Before and during his career as a writer, he attempted to be a publisher, printer, businessman, critic, and politician; he failed in all of these efforts. La Comédie Humaine reflects his real-life difficulties, and includes scenes from his own experience. This novel is a brilliant portrayal of the life of Honore de Balzac. Such a tribute to its subject matter! Gorham's "Wine of Life" is as wonderfully written as if the Master Balzac had ghost-written it himself.* A VG+ copy with some cover wear reducing it to GD+. No dust jacket.* 1959-01-01. n.
