Excerpt from Ursule Mirouët: And Other StoriesThe latter charge is certainly unfair, for Balzac has by no means written the book in rose-pink and sky-blue only, nor has he been afraid to show things more or less as they are. Nevertheless, it is di¿icult not to admit that evidences of restraint and convention do exist. Ursula - even more than Eugenie, who becomes a person on at least two occasions, her struggle with her father, and her revanche over her cousin is a thing of shreds and patches, an ideal being in whom that mysterious candor, to which the French attach such excessive value in a girl, and which they make such haste to do away with altogether in a woman, seems to shut out all positive individuality. She is very nice, but she is not very human.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
