The Last Line: stendhal

“Madame de Rênal was faithful to her promise. She did not try in any way to shorten her life, but three days after Julien, she died while hugging her children.”

From The Red and the Black by Stendhal

  1. I admit. Sometimes I blog too fast and I apologize for the typos. What I really need is a good-natured proofreader. Anyone out there????

  2. I typically don’t comment, but it seems appropriate after the note above.

    Thank you for the great work on The Last Line entries. I always enjoy them.

  3. This is the second typo in the ‘Last Line’ entry in four days. As a writer I would think you’d be more careful with other people’s words.
    You’re also missing the opening quotation marks.
