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.

Julie, lebensfroh und willensstark, schlägt die Warnungen ihres Vaters in den Wind und heiratet den Offizier Marquis d'Aiglemont. Doch der Triumph über ihre selbstbestimmte Heirat währt nicht lang. Bald erkennt Julie, dass ihr Ehemann zwar rechtschaffen und zuvorkommend aber auch distanziert und sterbenslangweilig ist.

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.

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.

She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.
