Description

The Tragedy Of A Genius by Honore de Balzac

In Balzac's classic study of obsession, a chance meeting changes Balthazar Claes' life as it introduces him to alchemy and initiates his quest of the absolute. Throughout, our sympathy is equally divided between Balthazar's single-minded determination to push back the frontiers of knowledge, and the ruin of his family. The novella The Quest for the Absolute (Alkahest, 1834; variously translated as "The Alchemist" "The Philosopher's Stone" "The Tragedy of A Genius" or "Balthazar") is about alchemical magic.
