Paz is a novel written by Honore De Balzac, a French author, and published in 1851. The story revolves around a young Spanish girl named Paz, who is orphaned at a young age and raised by her grandfather in the Basque region of Spain. Paz is a beautiful and intelligent girl, and her grandfather hopes to secure a good future for her by marrying her off to a wealthy man.However, Paz falls in love with a poor but ambitious young man named Juanito, who dreams of making a name for himself in the world. Despite her grandfather's objections, Paz marries Juanito and follows him to Paris, where he hopes to make his fortune. But life in Paris is not what they expected, and they soon find themselves struggling to make ends meet.As they navigate the challenges of life in a new city, Paz and Juanito's relationship is put to the test. Juanito becomes increasingly desperate to succeed, and Paz begins to feel neglected and unhappy. Meanwhile, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including artists, writers, and aristocrats, who offer them both opportunities and temptations.Paz is a story about love, ambition, and the pursuit of happiness. It explores the tension between tradition and modernity, and the challenges faced by those who seek to break free from their social and cultural constraints. Balzac's vivid descriptions of Parisian life and his nuanced characters make Paz a timeless classic of French literature.Paz was leading so subterranean a life that the fashionable world of Paris asked who he was when the Comtesse Laginska was seen in the Bois de Boulogne riding between her husband and a stranger. During the ride Clementine insisted that Thaddeus should dine with them. This caprice of the sovereign lady compelled Paz to make an evening toilet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
