by Honore De Balzac (Author)
Cousin Bette was Balzac's last great novel, and in it he explores power, lust, deception, and revenge. The characters are complex and vividly drawn. Cousin Bette is a woman of breath-taking malice. She plans and executes a diabolic plot of revenge against her own family for slights more imagined than real, destroying herself in the process.
