Goncourt was born in Nancy. His parents, Marc-Pierre Huot de Goncourt and Annette-Cécile de Goncourt (née Guérin), were minor aristocrats who died when he and his brother Jules de Goncourt were young adults.
Jul 21, 2015 · Edmond de Goncourt outlived many writers—among them his own brother, who died in 1872—and his records, in particular, demonstrate an obsession with death as celebrity’s shadow. For Edmond, fame is at once closely dogged by death and the only thing that can outstrip it.
The Goncourt Journal was a diary written in collaboration by the brothers Edmond and Jules de Goncourt from 1850 up to Jules' death in 1870, and then by Edmond alone up to a few weeks before his own death in 1896.
