«The Red Badge of Courage» is Stephen Crane's war novel, published by Puffin Classics in paperback (186 pages, in English).
The story follows Henry Fleming, a young soldier in the Union army during the American Civil War. Idealistic when he enlists, he flees in his first battle and is overwhelmed by shame; he wishes for a wound, a «red badge of courage», to hide his cowardice. When he returns to his regiment and takes part in a new battle, he must confront fear to regain his honor.
Published in 1987, the edition belongs to the Puffin Classics collection and includes the complete, unabridged text.
Suitable for young readers aged 12 and up and for those who want to discover the classics of American war literature.
