    I just got it myself! I didn’t realize it was so new to the web. How bizarre.

      Indeed! All the stories been at Project Gutenberg for fifteen years or so, during the big push by Team Balzac to get all his works on line in time for the 200th anniversary of his birth (1799). But these are different translations which I am always keen to read. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
