"Balzac e romanziere assoluto, e romanziere prima che realista: il processo di riproduzione della realta o di sue parti e in lui sempre sottoposto alle esigenze e agli intenti del narratore; e per lui sarebbe piu esatto parlare, non di realismo, ma di forzatura romanzesca della realta; cio vale sicuramente per le scene ad effetto, in cui e innegabile lesasperazione di elementi della trama; ma unaltrettale esasperazione e anche nei caratteri, nei gesti, nelle fisionomie: non e necessario pensare alle "fiamme dinferno" riverberanti sul volto di Vautrin, basta prendere, proprio nella descrizione dapertura del romanzo, le "bocche vizze" e i "denti avidi" dei pensionanti: dettagli feroci e deformanti, non realistici." (dallIntroduzione di Cesare De Marchi)
