Learn moreTwo girls emerge from a convent in order to marry and assume their places in post-Revolutionary French society. Louise is ruled by passion, Renée by pragmatism, and the intimate details of their trials and triumphs are revealed through their correspondence. Letters of Two Brides follows two strong women across the years as they navigate love, friendship, faith, and the conflicting expectations for women in society.
Honoré de Balzac (1799–1850) was a pioneer of realism and the modern novel. La Comédie humaine, featuring over 100 works detailing the private and public lives of morally complex characters, was his life’s work, mostly written between 1am and 8am in the morning while consuming copious cups of black coffee. Letters of Two Brides (Mémoires de deux jeunes mariées) was first published serially in 1841 and later in the section Scenes from private life of La Comédie.
