✦ Synopsis


Une femme, généreuse et belle comme un ange, soupçonnée d'adultère ; un jeune officier qui se lance dans la plus vaine et maladroite des enquêtes ; un agent de change égaré dans les affres de la passion ; une somme d'argent qu'on n'explique pas ; une société secrète (les Dévorants) dont les membres entendent exercer l'absolutisme de leur bon plaisir ; des duels, des assassinats, des suicides ; une évocation de Vidocq ; le tout sur un fond de ville monstre - Paris - gigantesque théâtre des fièvres de la Restauration : tout Balzac est déjà dans Ferragus qui apparaît comme l'une des étapes essentielles du grand œuvre, l'un des romans fondateurs de ce qui deviendra La Comédie humaine.
