Edition details

Père Goriot by Honore De Balzac. Issued as a luxurious, leather-bound hardback book by Pennsylvania-based publisher Franklin Library, complete with illustrations from artist Albert Lynch. Père Goriot is the tragic story of a father whose obsessive love for his two daughters leads to his financial and personal ruin. Interwoven with this theme is that of the impoverished young aristocrat, Rastignac, who came to Paris from the provinces to hopefully make his fortune. He befriends Goriot and becomes involved with the daughters. The story is set against the background of a whole society driven by social ambition and lust for wealth.
