Translated by Katharine Prescott Wormeley
''Letters to Madame Hanska, born Countess Rzewuska, afterwards Madame Honoré de Balzac'' by Honoré de Balzac is a collection of correspondence written from 1833 to 1846. It captures the intimate letters between Balzac and Madame Hanska, chronicling the evolution of their relationship, which ultimately led to their marriage. This correspondence provides a glimpse into Balzac's personal life, thoughts, and creative struggles, offering readers profound insights into his character and the emotional landscape he navigated as both a writer and lover. At the start of the collection, Balzac's letters reveal a heartfelt and romantic tone as he communicates with Madame Hanska, whom he refers to as ''l'Étrangère.'' He expresses his admiration and deep emotional connection to her, treating the correspondence as a sanctuary away from the pressures of his literary career and personal challenges. Throughout the opening letters, he shares his artistic ambitions, struggles with debt, and his desire for recognition, while also reflecting on love, solitude, and the constant pursuit of happiness. The beginning sets the stage for their developing relationship, highlighting the intersection of romance and literary passion during a period fraught with turmoil for Balzac himself.
