Physiologie Du Mariage

Honoré de Balzac & Andrew Oliver

Language: English

Published: Nov 2, 2005

Description:

Balzac's humorous exploration of marriage viewed largely through the eyes of a bachelor is one of the great essays of social satire of the nineteenth century. Full of anecdotes and witty aphorisms the book is extraordinarily modern in its defense of the rights of women, particularly when it comes to sex.
