About This Novel
"The Marriage Contract" is selected from Balzac's "The Human Comedy". It describes the experience of a husband who lost his entire family due to careless marriage, and criticizes the marriage system with interests as its core: Marriage negotiation is like a transaction, and the seeds of discord are often sown from the beginning. Even from the first day of signing the marriage contract, a hidden family civil war begins; at the same time, it also criticizes the decay of the entire bourgeois society's views on marriage and family. The author uses keen observation and profound writing skills to depict the personalities and attitudes of various figures in French social circles. He has unique insights into marriage and family. The text is very philosophical and thought-provoking.
