Synopsis
Balzac's cycle of novels entitled LOST ILLUSIONS (ILLUSIONS PERDUES) was published between 1837 and 1843, and chronicles the life of Lucien de Rubempré and his rise from a small-town boy to a famous French poet in Paris, and then his fall as he returns, failed and suicidal, to his home town--only to be rescued from despair by a mysterious benefactor.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "At the time when this story opens, the Stanhope press and the ink-distributing roller had not yet come into use in small provincial printing-houses; and, notwithstanding its paper industry, that linked Angoulême so closely with Paris printing, wooden presses--of the kind to which the figure of speech "to make the press groan" was literally applicable--were still in use in the town."

Industry Reviews
"Balzac was the master unequalled in the art of painting humanity as it exists in modern society."
letters - George Sand
