Anotácia knihy

A piercing, compassionate portrait of ambition, folly and the quiet revolutions of everyday lives.

The Celibates gathers Balzac's keen-eyed portraits across three tales-Pierrette, The Vicar Of Tours, and The Two Brothers-united by a realist nerve that dissected Paris and provinces with unflinching honesty. These classic french fiction pieces illuminate marriage and virtue, social mores, and the stubborn humanity that survives even when conventions push back. The stories move with brisk clarity, marrying incisive social satire to intimate character studies, making them both accessible and deeply rewarding for readers drawn to human folly and moral complexity.

Historically, Balzac's work stands at the fulcrum of 19th century literature and the birth of the novel as a social instrument. The Celibates-restored for today's and future generations by Alpha Editions-offers a vivid doorway into balzac realism, a cornerstone of the french realist writers canon. This edition invites casual readers to savour sharp ironies and vivere in the lived texture of old Paris, while giving book collectors and literary students a precious artefact that speaks to the era's pressures and possibilities.

Out of print for decades, this republication is more than a reprint-it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For admirers of 19th century france and for those curious about the evolution of social satire, The Celibates is a vital, enthralling touchstone.
