About This Novel
"Uncle Bangs" is Balzac's masterpiece and is known as the "highest peak of his art". Uncle Bangs lived in poverty and lacked understanding of real life, but he was full of sincere love for art. He loved collecting antiques throughout his life and did not hesitate to spend money for it. However, in reality, there are conspiracies everywhere. From the concierge to his nephew-in-law, from antique dealers to doctors to litigation attorneys, countless villains appear on the stage, all plotting to carve up Uncle Bangs's rare collection. Only his friend Schmuke gave him comfort and hope. Poor Bangs suffered a lot of mental torture and eventually died of poverty and illness. Through Uncle Bangs, Balzac vividly presents to us the greatness and nobility of mankind, as well as the humbleness, ugliness and filth of mankind.
