To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The truth is that the book ends much more artistically with Ou rninent Us mauvais Chemins j and if Balzac really intended to make La derniere Incarnation de Vautrin a continuation, this, as well as the great length of the book, would lead me to imagine that he had in mind rather a sort of sub-: division of the Scenes de la Fie Parisienne than a single work. For it must be at once evident that with the deaths of Esther and of Lucien, art, sense, and truth require that the curtain should &11. It ...may have been very desirable to finish off Vautrin ; and, as I shall have occasion to point out, he is a very interesting person. But his mauvais chemin is quite a different one from that of Esther; and he is only indirectly concerned with the particular splendeurs et miseres. On the other hand, the history of ^ La Torpille ' and of Lucien de Rubempre is by itself smoother and more complete. It affords Balzac, no doubt, opportunities of indulging a very large number of his extensive assortment of fancies, not to say &ds, and of bringing in a great number of the personages of his stock company.
