  • "In this 1847 novel, often seen as a companion piece to Balzac's Cousin Bette , Sylvain Pons is a musician who despite modest means has amassed a valuable collection of art. Only after a wealthy cousin banishes him as her guest does she learn of the collection and becomes one of many who would like to get their thieving hands on it."
  • "Ce roman sur le thème de la captation d'héritage augmente la galerie de portraits de La comédie humaine."
  • "Sylvain Pons, a musician in a Parisian boulevard orchestra, has a close friend in another musician from that same orchestra, the German pianist Wilhelm Schmucke. They lodge with Mme Cibot, but Pons unlike Schmucke has two failings: his passion (which is almost a mania) for collecting works of art, and his passion for good food. Schmucke, on the other hand, has only one passion, and that is his affection for Pons. Pons, being a gourmet, much enjoys dining regularly with his wealthy lawyer cousins M. and Mme Camusot de Marville, for their food is more interesting than Mme Cibot's and full of gastronomic surprises. In an endeavour to remain on good terms with the Camusots, and to repay their favour, he tries to find a bridegroom for their unappealing only child Cécile. However, when this ill-considered marriage project falls through, Pons is banished from the house."

  • "Pons est un brave homme qui dépense ses maigres rentes à collectionner des tableaux et autres objets d'art. Lorsque ses riches cousins, qui ont pour lui le plus grand mépris, découvrent la valeur de la collection qu'il a mis des années à constituer, ils sont prêts à toutes les scélératesses pour mettre la main sur ce trésor... Roman noir où se déploient dans leur hideur un univers cruel, une jungle hantée par des fauves inquiétants, Le Cousin Pons nous présente un monde criminel du salon à la loge de concierge."
