Scarlet and Black

Writer: Kathy MillerKathy Miller

Stendhal, 1830

Date read: 3/20/25


Everyone in this novel is an idiot. Especially Julien, but not limited to him. For real, he needed to keep it in his pants, Madam de Rênal should have thought about her children like at all, and Madamoiselle de la Mole was just dumb all around. They were so stupid and dramatic it made reading the novel infuriating.
