binstonbirchill 's review for:

Old Goriot by Olivia McCannon, Graham Robb, Honoré de Balzac
4.0

I would find this novel even more hilarious if it weren't based on so much truth, but things have changed significantly since 1800 right? and he's only talking about Paris right? This has no relevance in the modern world right? People are no longer self-obsessed, shallow & materialistic ... right?
