Stello by Alfred de Vigny

"Stello" by Alfred de Vigny is a novel published in 1832. When the mysterious Doctor Noir arrives to treat young Stello, who suffers from a strange malady called "blue devils," the cure takes an unusual form. Through dialogue and three embedded tales of doomed poets—Gilbert, Chatterton, and Chénier—the doctor attempts to heal his patient's existential crisis. This innovative work explores the relationship between artist and society, revealing a deeper truth: doctor and patient may be two sides of the same troubled soul.
