Melmoth Reconciled
Honoré de Balzac
Book Overview:
Wherefore, that race of corsairs whom we dignify with the title of bankers, the gentry who take out a license for which they pay a thousand crowns, as the privateer takes out his letters of marque, hold these rare products of the incubations of virtue in such esteem that they confine them in cages in their counting-houses, much as governments procure and maintain specimens of strange beasts

J’adore l’humour de Balzac !
'Melmoth Reconciled' is a long story, which is part of 'Études philosophiques' of Honore De Balzac's 'La Comédie Humaine' series.
