Modern Library #157 The Red And The Black by Stendhal From the time Honore de Balzac pronounced Stendhal's pre-eminence among the novelists of France until today, the author of The Red and the Black has retained and spread his influence among writers of every nationality. His story of Julien Sorel is incomparably the most astute and penetrating study of middle-class mores in all fiction. It is, in addition, a relentless dissection of the hypocrisy and opportunism of as unconscionable an upstart as ever violated the Seventh and other Commandments in order to get on in the world. First Modern Library Edition, 1929 stated; titles inside cover show a Fall 1932 dust jacket. Not ex-library. CONDITION: Book is good; strong and straight; would be 'very good' but unfortunately there's two pages of pencil notes on the two last blank pages at the back, otherwise no other writing or markings; light aging on page edges. Dust jacket is good; some chipping on edges and corners; pencil mark on front cover, tanning on spine. No price-clip. Enclosed in a mylar protective sleeve. SHIPPING: $3.99, US Media Mail. All books purchased after the first one are FREE shipping, so $3.99 total no matter how many you buy. USA ONLY, no international!!!! Your money back if unhappy for any reason.
