Honoré de Balzac & Sheba Blake 
A Start in Life 

The novel A Start in Life is part of the Scenes of Private Life section of Honore de Balzac’s masterpiece of nineteenth-century realism, The Human Comedy. In much of Balzac’s work, the aristocracy is portrayed as vain, duplicitous, and greedy. But in this novel, it is members of the working class who are mercilessly skewered when what starts out as a harmless prank rapidly snowballs into a comedy of errors with profound consequences.
