The Firm of Nucingen - Paperback
by James Waring (Translator), Honoré de Balzac (Author)
This novella is a story told as a conversation between four "cormorants" (the metaphor is Balzac's) who sit and drink in a private room while their talk is overheard through the paper-thin partition and reported to us by Balzac himself (or a fictional representative of the writer).
