About this book

This engaging summary presents an analysis of Cousin Bette by Honoré de Balzac, which tells the story of a woman driven by jealousy to try and destroy her cousin's family by any means possible. Along with her beautiful but malicious friend, Bette schemes to push the Hulot family into infidelity, betrayal and financial ruin. Cousin Bette stands out for its realism, with vivid descriptions of its cast of characters and a perceptive examination of the social changes taking place in 19th-century Paris. The novel is one of the Scenes of Parisian Life in Balzac's The Human Comedy, a hugely ambitious series of around 90 novels and novellas which aimed to depict the entirety of 19th-century French society.
