Old Goriot, one of Honoré de Balzac's most acclaimed works, immerses us in 19th-century Paris, where ambition and moral decay intertwine. The novel explores a father's obsession with his daughters and the sacrifices he is willing to make for them, while a young student struggles to rise in Parisian society. Through complex characters and an engaging plot, Balzac portrays the harsh reality of a society marked by money and appearances.

Honoré de Balzac was a French novelist and playwright. The novel sequence La Comédie humaine, described as a panorama of post-Napoleonic French life, is generally viewed as his magnum opus.
