The Red and the Black, by Stendhal is a classic among classic books. Stendhal's work has had a long lasting affect on the world of literature, influencing great writers like Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Dickens and a host of others.

In this book review of the Red and Black, we dive into the deeper message that can be found in this classic book. There are a host of angles that one can approach this work from. This video, instead of looking at individual characters, takes the book's story as a whole and examines the critique that Stendhal is levelling at French society at the earlier end of the 19th Century.

I hope that my role in the booktube community can be to lend some in depth book reviews of classic literature and helping with understanding classics as a whole.

Stendhal certainly holds a significant position in the Western Canon of literature and is a must in book recommendations for anyone trying to get a broad grasp of the development of the Novel as we know it.
