Review

"If any single work deserves to be called the father of the modern novel, that work is the anticipatory compendium known as 'The Red and the Black'."

"[S]hould you ask in what Stendahl's success lies, I would reply--in the creation of Julien Sorel."

First line

The small town of Verrieres may be regarded as one of the most attractive in the Franche-Comte.

Annotation

In this early masterpiece of psychological realism, Stendahl creates the character of Julien Sorel, who despite his difficulties in fitting into a society he sees as decadent, rises to the top by joining in its corruption--then falls tragically in the end. Stendahl's 1830 novel--a classic study of the outsider--anticipates Dostoevsky, Zola, Flaubert, and Proust.
