Story
Quand Balzac publie en 1835 "Le Contrat de Mariage", il publie un roman de formation, un roman stratégique, un roman social, mais surtout une critique acerbe et lucide de sa société, faite de rivalités, d’intérêts, de rapports de forces... L'auteur y fait montre de son génie de l'observation du monde qu'il fréquente, décrivant les trois vices du monde, le plaisir, l'argent et la puissance. À travers l'histoire de ce mariage ruiné et vicié par l'hypocrisie, les mensonges, la haine, Balzac distille également ses conseils maritaux, se montrant très virulent à l'encontre des mœurs de sa société.

Story
Honore de Balzac - der französische Teufel in Mönchskutte, ein besessener Workaholic, dessen Arbeitseifer legendär ist. Viele seiner Erzählungen nehmen kirchliche Würdenträger auf den Arm und charakterisieren sowohl das intrigante Verhalten von den sogenannten höheren Kreisen als auch das biedere Bürgertum. Die Liebe und der Sex sind ebenso ständige Begleiter im zivilen wie im kirchlichen Sinne. Schmunzelnd und heiter, erregt und amüsiert verlässt man das Balzac-Universum - falls man es schafft, es wieder zu verlassen.

Story
Moins connu que Balzac romancier, voici Balzac maître de la nouvelle. Ces deux récits parlent d'amour, du mal d'amour et de vengeance. Ils sont des épisodes de la vie de certains personnages de "La Comédie humaine" que l'on croise ici brièvement. "Étude de femme" nous conte un moment cruel et éphémère : un jeune homme, croyant envoyer une lettre d'amour à sa maîtresse, se trompe d'adresse et la missive parvient chez une épouse fidèle, mais qui se prend à rêver devant les mots brûlants.

Story
Blind vor Verliebtheit stürzt sich die junge Julie d'Aiglemont in die Ehe mit einem oberflächlichen Offizier der Napoleonischen Armee. Rasch folgt die Ernüchterung. Julie wählt die einzige zu ihrer Zeit mögliche Form des Überlebens: die Scheinehe. Es folgen Jahre, in denen platonische wie leidenschaftliche Beziehungen und schuldlos-schuldig ausgelöste Katastrophen Julie von einem naiven Mädchen zu einer attraktiven, zur Liebesfähigkeit gereiften Frau werden lassen.

Story
Roman de l'absolu dans l'art et dans l'amour, "Gambara" est une réflexion sur l'écart entre la théorie et la pratique, le savoir et l'inspiration, la femme idéale et la femme réelle. Balzac a écrit en 1839 l'histoire du Signore Paolo Gambara, musicien pauvre qui rêve de composer un opéra, "Mahomet", et ne parvient pas à l'écrire. Pas plus qu'il ne parvient à reconnaître chez sa propre femme les sentiments qu'il prête à l'épouse de son héros.

Balzac décrit, avec une cruauté réaliste rarement atteinte, la descente aux enfers du malheureux Sylvain Pons, prototype du parent pauvre, compositeur démodé, pique-assiette attendrissant, génial collectionneur de bric-à-brac, et ami du bon Allemand Schmucke. Autour de ces cœurs purs, il construit une impitoyable galerie de portraits : la portière Cibot, l'Auvergnat Rémonencq, l'avocat marron Fraisier, le "tableaumane" juif Elie Magus.

But her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter’s life.

Story
Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our wellbeing.

But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.
