Title: Passionate but complex
Review: An interesting tale of the rise and fall of Julien Sorel, a carpenter's son who elevates his social standing , with the help of the clergy, to become the secretary of a Parisian marquis. Julien is cunning and ambitious, constantly suspicious of his wealthy employers, manages to assimilate well to noble drawing rooms, but loses his focus when love intervenes. The novel is complicated by a multitude of political references which, even with the help of lengthy footnotes, are difficult to grasp unless you're a French historian. Also, Julien's monastery stay is a dull diversion from the main story and adds little to the reader's overall impression. Very dense, sometimes not an easy read, but philosophical, thought-provoking, and definitely passionate.
