On a lovely spring morning in the year 1829, a man of fifty or thereabouts was wending his way on horseback along the mountain road that leads to a large village near the Grande Chartreuse. This village is the market town of a populous canton that lies within the limits of a valley of some considerable length. The melting of the snows had filled the boulder-strewn bed of the torrent (often dry) that flows through this valley, which is closely shut in between two parallel mountain barriers, above which the peaks of Savoy and of Dauphine tower on every side.

The Human Comedy is the title of Honoré de Balzac's multi-volume collection of interlinked novels and stories depicting French society in the period of the Restoration (1815–1830) and the July Monarchy (1830–1848). Balzac organized his works into 3 groups: "Etudes de Moeurs au XIXe siècle" (Studies of Manners in the 19th Century) + "Etudes philosophiques" + "Etudes analytiques". Balzac wrote that the "Etudes de Moeurs" would study the effects of society and touch on all genders, social classes, ages and professions of people. Meanwhile, the "Etudes philosophiques" would study the causes of these effects. Finally, the third "analytical" section would study the principles behind these phenomena.

One of the greatest French novelists, Balzac was also an accomplished writer of shorter fiction. This volume includes twelve of his finest short stories - many of which feature characters from his epic series of novels the Comédie Humaine.

In The Atheist's Mass, we learn the true reason for a distinguished atheist surgeon's attendance at religious services; La Grande Breteche describes the horrific truth behind the locked doors of a decaying country mansion, while The Red Inn relates a brutal tale of murder and betrayal. A fascinating counterpoint to the renowned novels, all the stories collected here stand by themselves as mesmerizing works by one of the finest writers of nineteenth-century France.

19th century French author Honore de Balzac is best known for his multi-volume collection of interlinked novels, stories, and essays called "The Human Comedy". This collection of works includes some ninety-one finished and forty-six unfinished works which depict the intricacies of French society during the first half of the 19th century, a period of time which is referred to separately as the "Restoration", from 1815 to 1830, and the "July Monarchy", from 1830 to 1849. Balzac chose the title of "The Human Comedy" as a reference to Dante's "The Divine Comedy"; however Balzac's works contrast those of Dante's in the fact that instead of focusing on the theological world they focus on the reality of human life at the time in which he lived. This period was a time of great change in which the importance of nobility and the economic and political power of the peerage was slowly being displaced by the rise of capitalism and the bourgeoisie. This collection of ten stories includes some of the more important examples of the shorter works in Balzac's magnum opus, "The Human Comedy", which will be forever remembered for its pioneering influence on the modernist realist movement in literature. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
