Fille Aux Yeux D'or

fille aux yeux d'or

by Honoré de Balzac

La Fille aux yeux d’or est un roman d'Honoré de Balzac qui explore les thèmes de l'amour, de l'obsession et de la passion dans la société française du XIXe siècle. Le comte Henri de Marsay, un dandy riche et puissant, est captivé par la beauté de Paquita, une jeune femme qui attire l'attention de tous par son charme et son allure particulière. Malgré la présence de la marquise de San-Réal, qui jalouse et protège Paquita, le comte persévère dans ses intentions et tente de la séduire et de la faire sienne. Le récit s'articule autour des jeux de pouvoir, des manipulations et des conséquences désastreuses des passions débridées.
