THE SEAMY SIDE OF HISTORY Honore de Balzac; Paperback
“The Seamy Side of History” (1840-1847) founded on a conception the obverse of the famous “Thirteen,” in which a Brotherhood of Consolation, a secret society of men, joined together for the purpose of remedying the evils which society neglects. Madame de la Chanterie, persecuted and outraged, yet never failing in faith and fortitude, is the most sublime figure in the Comedie Humaine. Balzac is always a pleasure to read even if you do not appreciate the story.
