Eugénie Grandet; Modeste Mignon (Classic Reprint) Honoré de Balzac indir

Excerpt from Eugénie Grandet; Modeste Mignon It is also difficult to make too much allowance for the fatal effect of an education under an insignificant if amiable mother and a tyrannical father, and of a confinement to an excessively small circle of extremely provincial society, on a disposition of more nobility than intellectual height or range. Still it must, I think, be permitted to the advocatus diaboli to urge that Eugenie's martyrdom is almost too thorough; that though complete, it is not, as Gautier said of his own ill luck, artistement complet; that though it may be difficult to put the finger on any special blot, to say, Here the girl should have revolted, or, Here she would have behaved in some other way differently still there is a vague sense of incomplete lifelikeness - of that tendency to mirage and exaggeration which has been, and will be, so often noticed.
