Balzac's work is celebrated for its vivid portrayal of post-Napoleonic French society through La Comédie humaine, a series of interconnected stories. His keen observational skills and unfiltered societal critique establish him as a pioneer of realism in literature. The complexity of his characters, even minor ones, reflects moral ambiguity and human depth, while the city of Paris is depicted with rich, anthropomorphic qualities. His influence extends to numerous prominent writers and filmmakers, marking a significant impact on literary and cinematic traditions.
