Eugenia Grandet
Eugenia Grandet | Honoré de Balzac
Dentro de esa catedral narrativa que es la Comedia humana, la novela Eugenia Grandet ocupa un lugar especial por los dos grandes caracteres que en ella crea Balzac: el de una joven que descubre por primera vez el amor y entrega como arras cuanto tiene para ayudar a su enamorado, y el de su padre, el tío Grandet, la más acabada de las encarnaciones de avaro desde la obra de ese título de Molière. El amor paternal será abolido por la avaricia de un Grandet que, en el último momento de su vida, amenaza a su hija con pedirle cuentas de la herencia cuando Eugenia llegue al otro mundo. Al lado de estos dos potentes retratos, Charles, el joven parisino criado entre el lujo y la ociosidad, sólo sirve para poner de relieve la realidad de la vida cotidiana, la potencia del amor de Eugenia y los extremos a que puede llegar la avaricia. Eugenia Grandet, aunque forma parte de la Comedia humana, es una capilla aislada de esa catedral narrativa: cerrada sobre sí misma, el acierto en el análisis de esos dos caracteres y la descripción del medio social en que se desenvuelven la han convertido en la novela más conocida de Balzac.

Domestic drama starts when Eugenie experiences her first love and she begins rebel against her father whose every deeds are always subordinated to the money. With his Human Comedy, Balzac spreads out various characters whose decisions are always driven by profits, and they often find themselves in tragicomic situations. A story written in 1833 about the morality of a society and an individual is still relavent today...some things do not change.

Balzac describes too. That was my first impression but then I realized that it got much better convey the feelings besides the atmosphere .
