Renowned for his keen observational detail, Honoré de Balzac's work captures the complexities of post-Napoleonic French society through his novel sequence, La Comédie humaine. His characters, rich in moral ambiguity, reflect a deep humanity, while even inanimate objects gain character, particularly the city of Paris, which serves as a vibrant backdrop. Balzac's influence extends to numerous literary giants and filmmakers, marking him as a pivotal figure in the emergence of realism in European literature.
