Read 123/298 - distracted again by "the news" but finally finished 25 pages. At this rate I'll need 7 more days ...
Lovey descriptions of young, naive Eugénie... secretly falling in love with her cousin Charles.

Easy read...Balzac introduces the landscape, people, their clothes....rooms and in between we learn that Eugenie Grande is about to fall in love with a young man who her father (miser, stingy) may not like...the "Le Parisien" has debts.

Haven't even started my 50 pg a day target...and I'm frustrated! Why does Balzac refuse to create chapters ...for a flowing narrative? It does NOT enhance the storytelling...but drives me crazy!
