Sarrasine

Sarrasine is a novella by Honoré de Balzac first published in 1830.

The tale follows the undulating pathways of Sarrasine the sculptor’s shocking journey to his coming of age.

As one of the “fathers of realism” Balzac painted with his words a vivid portrait of life in the swirling salons of Europe at the end of the Bourbon monarchy, and we follow Sarrasine from France to Italy in search of both his métier and his muse.

However it is also the story of La Zambinella, an Italian singer with whom Sarrasine falls madly and passionately in love. But that passion holds a secret which Sarrasine spies too late.
