About This Novel
This book depicts Grandet's life of loving money as much as his life. He drove up prices, speculated on public debt, usury, forced his nephew away, forced his daughter to give up her right to inherit property. Finally, before his death, he tried to take away the priest's gilded cross. It profoundly criticized Grandet's criminal history of making a fortune and his dehumanizing money worship.
