Balzac's work is celebrated for its intricate portrayal of post-Napoleonic French society through the expansive narrative of La Comédie humaine. His keen observational skills bring to life a diverse array of characters, each morally complex and deeply human, while even inanimate objects, particularly in Paris, are given vibrant personalities. This unfiltered realism has significantly influenced notable literary figures and filmmakers, establishing Balzac as a pivotal figure in the evolution of European literature.
