What are some essential French novels that aren't your Hugo, Dumas, Flaubert, etc. Something about the early 19th century French setting seems so comfy to me and I want to read more, but I've read a lot of the big names.

Huysmans
Proust

Just in case you haven't read it: Lost Illusions by Balzac. Sorry if that already fits into your "etc". 19th century French novels are very comfy, so I'll be checking back in here for some recommendations too.

Read all of Balzac's La Comédie humaine and Zola's Les Rougon-Macquart. That should keep you busy.

Grow up.

Rousseau, Chateaubriand, Senancour, Lamartine Stendhal and Balzac are all their biggest inspirations. Germaine de Stael too apparently but I haven't read anything from her.

Read Balzac's Droll Stories and learn how not to be a cuck and an absolute joke.
