Missing Antecedent?

For this problem, isn't E, the suggested answer, wrong? (I don't like any of the answers). If you look at the non-underlined part, "his" is used to refer to Balzac but Balzac is never used in the sentence at all; only Balzac's. Am i missing something here?

Balzac is used in the sentence. Reread choice E.

Option D - should have been that show and not shows; use of his without a proper antecedent

I agree with @stormier. D should be 'shortcomings that show in his writings...'. E is correct in all respects. All the elements are in parallel and clear pronoun-antecedent.
Structure: X, Y and Z deny Balzac admission to the blah blah blah.
