Description - The Girl with the Golden Eyes, Book Three of 'The Thirteen' by Honore de Balzac
The third, and briefest, part of a trilogy called The History of the Thirteen, The Girl with the Golden Eyes is one piece of the vast tableaux of Balzac's Human Comedy. The "Thirteen" are a secret society. The Girl with the Golden Eyes contains some of Balzac's most intense observations of 19th Century Parisian society. It tells the story of a beautiful young woman seduced by a servant of "The Thirteen." The other two parts of The History of the Thirteen may also be of interest: Ferragus, and The Duchesse de Langeais. Each contains Balzac's sharp-eyed observations of human frailty and love.
