Андре Моруа
Although Balzac's "Revue Parisienne" lasted only three issues, "Z. Marcas" has remained a moderately popular story. Hunt notes that it has "only subsidiary value", but biographer André Maurois calls it "an admirable tale". Robb notes that "Z. Marcas" was an important herald of political realities to come, and provided a warning to the political class of the time.
