About this book
Where the first part counted the husband's grievances, this second part lets the wives answer. Balzac's preface says the earlier sketches showed only the masculine side, that women had complained, and that a fair account of marriage must hear both. The sketches begin with Husbands During the Second Month, a talk between two young wives, Caroline and Stephanie, friends since boarding school, who sit in a window-seat at a ball given by Madame de Fischtaminel.
