«Le Rouge et le Noir, tomo 1» is Stendhal's novel published by Nelson in paperback (314 pages, in French).
Julien Sorel, a young man of humble origins and great ambition, becomes a tutor in a bourgeois household in nineteenth-century France. His love affairs and desire to rise socially clash with the hypocrisy and conventions of a society dominated by appearances.
The novel was originally published in 1830; this volume, subtitled «chronique de 1830», contains the first part.
For readers of classics, nineteenth-century French literature, and historical fiction.
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".
