Question: Looking for author classical books!?
french playwriter wrote about real poverty in 19th century!. also any other classical author recommendations!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
You might be thinking of Honore de Balzac - famous for his novel cycle, "The Human Comedy"!.

I would also recommend Guy de Maupassant - not a playwright but a brilliant short story writer - I recommend "The Necklace"!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Emile Zola, a founder and advocate of Realism in literature, is an author who fits your brief description!. See GERMINAL which addresses extreme poverty among rural mine workers in northern France during the 1860s!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A great classical book to read would be " Sherlock Holmes, The hound of the baskervilles!.

By: Sir Arthur Conan Doyal!.!.
