The Life of Henry Brulard
by Stendhal
This is the autobiography of one of France's greatest writers. Here, with such ferocious honesty and indignation that it was to remain unpublishable for more than a century, Stendhal revisits his unhappy childhood in a stuffy provincial town. His adored mother, who died when he was seven; a father devoted only to his own social ambitions; the aunt whose daily cruelties passed for care: these are among the indelible portraits in a work that captures Stendhal's youth, its pleasures and sorrows.
