Father Goriot is one of Honoré de Balzac’s most poignant works, delving into the tragic tale of a father’s unrequited love for his daughters. Set in a Paris boarding house, the novel introduces Eugène de Rastignac, an ambitious young man, and Jean-Joachim Goriot, a former businessman whose life is consumed by his devotion to his two selfish daughters. As Goriot sacrifices everything for their happiness, Balzac paints a powerful picture of familial betrayal and the corruption of society driven by wealth and ambition. Balzac’s searing critique of social climbing, materialism, and the breakdown of family ties makes Father Goriot a timeless classic. Through the lens of the Goriot family’s dysfunction, the novel explores themes of love, greed, and the harsh realities of life in post-Revolutionary France.
