MPOCKBOOK. Witch. Balzac O. de

“Mischievous stories” of Honore de Balzac is a sparkling stylization in the spirit of the love novels of the Renaissance. These playful and funny stories are full of cheerfulness, unbridled laughter and rapture of life. Here, mischievous is intertwined with touching, sad and even tragic, and the most risky and amusing positions sometimes lead to events that reveal the deep humanity of the heroes. The author borrowed the plots from the works of ancient writers, retelling them in their own way, now and then adding descriptions of sophisticated love pleasures. He created vivid images of women of treacherous and naive, seductive and worthy sympathy and worship. Charming, frivolous, endlessly witty short stories and to this day remain no surpassed masterpiece.
