Description
Balzac’s great theme was money, its uses and abuses. Old Goriot, betrayed by rapacious daughters, and Rastignac, an ambitious provincial youth alive to his opportunities, form the twin foci around which the grasping Parisian society of the 1820s revolves, in this, Balzac’s most economical and universally loved novel.
