Ambientada en ParÃs a comienzos del siglo XIX, la obra cuenta la historia de un joven que recibe un pedazo de piel o cuero mágico que satisface cada uno de sus deseos. Sin embargo, por cada deseo concedido la piel se encoge y consume una porción de su energÃa vital. La piel de zapa pertenece al grupo de Études philosophiques de la serie de novelas de Balzac, La comedia humana. El tema central del libro es el conflicto entre el deseo y la longevidad, entre elegir una vida intensa pero breve o una larga existencia contenida. La piel mágica representa la energÃa vital de su propietario, que se agota con cada deseo.
