Excerpt from A Lost Illusion Perhaps the most difficult thing Elizabeth Vyner had been called upon to do in the course of her twenty-four years' history was to break the news of her engagement to her relations. She did not know how difficult it was till the moment to speak arrived, though she had rehearsed the scene many times in those vividly conscious half-hours before sleep overtook her, or when she wakened fresh and alert in the morning to take up the uninterrupted inward drama, and play her part in it once more. In all these pictured scenes she had come off victorious, though only after a strenuous fight, and it was the thought of the inevitable struggle prefacing victory that had hitherto turned her coward. Only the day before this chronicle Opens, however, her reluctance to make the confession was conquered by the receipt of an ardent letter from her lover, urging their immediate marriage, and she felt that to delay longer would be ungracious and unfair to Richard Dale.

A new annotated translation of the keystone of Balzac’s Comédie Humaine—a sweeping narrative of corrupted idealism in a cynical urban milieu Lost Illusions is an essential text within Balzac’s Comédie Humaine, his sprawling, interconnected fictional portrait of French society in the 1820s and 1830s comprising nearly one hundred novels and short stories. This novel, published in three parts between 1837 and 1843, tells the story of Lucien de Rubempré, a talented young poet who leaves behind a scandalous provincial life for the shallow, corrupt, and cynical vortex of modernity that was nineteenth-century Paris—where his artistic idealism slowly dissipates until he eventually decides to return home. Balzac poured many of his thematic preoccupations and narrative elaborations into Lost Illusions, from the contrast between life in the provinces and the all-consuming world of Paris to the idealism of poets, the commodification of art, the crushing burden of poverty and debt, and the triumphant cynicism of hack journalists and social climbers. The novel teems with characters, incidents, and settings, though perhaps none so vivid as its panoramic and despairing view of Paris as the nexus of modernity’s cultural, social, and moral infection. For Balzac, no institution better illustrates the new reality than Parisian journalism: “amoral, hypocritical, brazen, dishonest, and murderous,” he writes. In this new translation, Raymond N. MacKenzie brilliantly captures the tone of Balzac’s incomparable prose—a style that is alternatingly impassioned, overheated, angry, moving, tender, wistful, digressive, chatty, intrusive, and hectoring. His informative annotations guide the modern reader through the labyrinth of Balzac’s allusions.
