Lucien Leuwen; ou, l'Amarante et le Noir. Tome Second by Stendhal
"Lucien Leuwen; ou, l'Amarante et le Noir. Tome Second" by Stendhal is a novel written in 1834 but published posthumously in 1894. Young polytechnic student Lucien is expelled for republican sympathies and becomes a lieutenant in provincial France, where he falls for Madame de Chasteller, a royalist widow whose politics oppose his own. His father's influence later secures him a position manipulating legislative elections, plunging him into the cynical machinery of July
Monarchy politics. The work remains unfinished, exploring disillusionment with post-Napoleonic military life and forbidden love across political divides. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
