Industry Reviews "...an anticipation of our own age is manifested in Henry Brulard in the informing idea of conducting an exploratory archaelolgy of the self....Nearly a century before Freud and Proust, he is repeatedly aware of the elusiveness, the essential recalcitrance, of memory....Stendhal has an essentially comic vision of the self, which may be a little odd in a writer who embraced much of the agenda of the Romantic movement....To write about oneself from a comic perspective means to be able to turn the same unsparing satiric eye on oneself as others, and, without disavowing one's aspirations and great passions, to view them with a certain shrewd amusement. Stendhal's ability to do all this makes 'Henry Brulard' one of his most engaging books." Times Literary Supplement - Robert Alter (07/21/1995)
