O Elixir da Longa Vida e um conto fantastico de Honore de Balzac que melhor poe em questao a condicao e natureza humana. Nao se trata apenas de uma reinvencao da figura mitica de Don Juan, mas de um ensaio sobre a ambicao humana e os seus limites. Um bom ensaio de filosofia sob a forma literaria

An Unabridged Edition from the Translation by Ernest Dowson This shot story was my introduction to Honore de Balzac. While I knew the name I had never had anyone suggest I read his work until I entered a course at university and this was suggested reading. I am so glad I discoverer this author. His work is as modern today as when this was first written. A great short story. I highly recommend this.

Ein Roman aus Balzacs Commedie humaine, der den Autor als Kenner der Kriminalistik und des Strafrechts erweist, wie es im 19. Jahrhundert wohl nur noch bei Dostojewski der Fall ist. Deutlich werden die Verflechtungen zwischen Strafrecht, Strafverfahren und gesellschaftlichen Veranderungen in der Ara Napoleons, und der Leser gewinnt Einblicke in das Rechtssystem der damaligen Zeit.
