«Lamiel» is Stendhal's novel published in paperback in the Folio collection (342 pages, in French).
Lamiel, a young woman who has heard of love as a great mystery, decides to put it to the test. After asking Jean, a Norman boy, to shave and kiss her, she becomes his lover; his reaction, between laughter and bewilderment, reveals that reality does not resemble the legend.
The text, originally published in 1889, is offered here with an edition by Anne-Marie Meininger.
For readers of nineteenth-century French literature and classics in general, interested in Stendhal's prose.
Marie-Henri Beyle, better known by his pen name Stendhal, was a French writer. Best known for the novels Le Rouge et le Noir and La Chartreuse de Parme, he is highly regarded for the acute analysis of his characters' psychology and considered one of the early and foremost practitioners of realism. A self-proclaimed egotist, the neologism for the same characteristic in his characters was "Beylism".
