La Chartreuse de Parme Stendhal Volumes I and II complete c1920 - Vienne - Manz 7" by 4.5" - 313, 355pp   DETAILS Handsome leather bound set with gilt titles to spines and marbled boards.   Text is in French. The Charterhouse of Parma (1839; French: La Chartreuse de Parme) is one of Stendhal's two acknowledged masterpieces (and only complete novels) along with The Red and the Black. The novel is often cited as an early example of realism, a stark contrast to the Romantic style popular while Stendhal was writing. It is considered by many authors to be a truly seminal work; Honoré de Balzac considered it the most significant novel of his time, André Gide thought it the greatest French novel ever. Tolstoy was heavily influenced by Stendhal's famous treatment of the Battle of Waterloo, where his protagonist wanders about in confusion as to whether or not he has been in "a real battle". CONDITION The bindings are tight and firm and all covers are firmly attached.  There is some mild wear to the extremites, mainly to the boards which are slightly bumped to the corners and there is a crease mark down the front of volume II.  Internally the books are generally clean apart from mild spots in places.  If you want to keep an eye on what is coming up, just add us to your favourites list!
