Cromwell (tragedy)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cromwell is an 1820 verse tragedy by Honoré de Balzac. When it was finished, it was reviewed by a man named Andrieux, the former tutor of Eugène Surville, Balzac's sister. On the manuscript, Andrieux wrote: "The author should do anything he likes, but not literature."[1]
