Le Colonel Chabert
On n'oublie pas le surgissement de ce fantôme, le colonel Chabert, cru mort à Eylau. Ni le drame de ce héros, réduit à la misère et à l'hospice par l'égoïsme de ceux qu'il aime. Ni la vision d'un cerveau qui ne retrouve la mémoire que pour mieux la reperdre. Histoire invraisemblable ? Non pas. Ces clochards, ces vagabonds que nous côtoyons, le génie de Balzac nous pousse à voir en eux des Chabert.

Part of the epic series of historical novels known as The Human Comedy, Honore de Balzac's Colonel Chabert delves into the roots of the upheaval that came to a head during the Restoration period in the early nineteenth century. In the novel, Balzac mercilessly skewers the social problems of the era, contrasting the honor and courage that Napoleon's soldiers exhibited on the battlefield to the decadence and excess that were displayed in the era's upper-crust conventions.

When Colonel Chabert marries a prostitute named Rose Chapotel, he doesn’t know yet how the marriage will affect the rest of his life. Chabert leaves for a war in Russia, where he is seriously wounded. Everyone thinks he is dead. Chabert, however, has enough strength to survive – and after being away for years, he is about to return to Paris. But nothing is the same in Paris. Chabert’s property is gone, but he is not the kind of man who would easily give up – he is ready to fight for his rights. Honoré de Balzac (1799–1850) was a French writer. He was born in Tours, but moved to Paris when he was a teenager. The best known works of his include ‘Father Goriot’ and ‘Cousin Bette’. Balzac’s writing style is realistic, and he also wrote plays. Besides writing he worked as a journalist and critic.
