Book excerpt: Excerpt from Honore De Balzac in Twenty-Five Volumes, Vol. 6 of 25: The First Complete Translation Into English; Pierrette; The Abbe Birotteau; A Bachelor's Establishment; With Illustrations From Drawings on the Wood by Famous French Artists Les celibataibes, the longest number of the original Comedie under a single title, next to Illusions Perdues, is not, like that book, connected by any unity of story. In deed, the general bond of union is pretty weak; and though it is quite true that bachelors and old maids are the heroes and heroines of all three, it would be rather hard to establish any other bond of connection, and it is rather unlikely that any one unprompted would fix on this as a sufficient ground of partnership.
