{"product_id":"the-charterhouse-of-parma-9780679783183","title":"The Charterhouse of Parma","description":"Richard Howard's exuberant and definitive rendition of Stendhal's stirring tale has brought about the rediscovery of this classic by modern readers. Stendhal narrates a young aristocrat's adventures in Napoleon's army and in the court of Parma, illuminating in the process the whole cloth of European history. As Balzac wrote, \"Never before have the hearts of princes, ministers, courtiers, and women been depicted like this...one sees perfection in every detail.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith beautiful illustrations by Robert Andrew Parker.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stendhal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern Library\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.03h x 5.25w x 1.23d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780679783183\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 41\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e45278 \/ Charterhouse of Parma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/05\/2000 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/03\/2000 pg. 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Modern Library has played a significant role in American cultural life for the better part of a century. The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foundation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editions of important works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library's seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House rede-signed the series, restoring as its emblem the running torchbearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of selecting titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world's best books, at the best prices.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Modern Library","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44185107660915,"sku":"9.78068E+12","price":21.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_59538ae9-76b4-45d9-9e20-a0b12acca85a.jpg?v=1767100532","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-charterhouse-of-parma-9780679783183","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
