Eugenia Grandet. Novel by Honoré de Balzac. Translated by Sigurjón Björnsson.
Balzac was in his forties when this book was first published. He had already published several books that were not very popular. But with Eugenie Grandet began his triumphant career that lasted until his last days.
This short, simple but dramatic novel has long become a classic. It is a great achievement because of its exceptionally clever character descriptions, precise descriptions of places, well-crafted dialogues and vivid plot. It has been published in numerous editions in France and has been translated into many languages. And it is still being published, almost two hundred years after its original publication. Now it is finally being sent to Icelandic literature lovers as a special treat.
