Summary "The Ink-Stain (Tache d'encre)" by René Bazin is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the life of Fabien Mouillard, a young law student navigating both his academic ambitions and personal aspirations in Paris. The opening chapters introduce Fabien's mundane existence as he reflects on his monotonous upbringing and the absence of significant events in his life until he experiences a transformative incident involving a mishap at the National Library, where he accidentally stains a rare manuscript with ink. The beginning of the novel establishes Fabien's character and his environment, highlighting his academic struggles and aspirations in the realm of law, as well as his budding curiosity and admiration for literature. He recalls his upbringing under the care of his uncle and describes his experiences at the National Library, a place filled with scholarly pursuits. The catastrophic ink stain incident not only serves as a pivotal event in his life but also sets the stage for the unfolding of new relationships, particularly with the learned Charnot and his daughter, Jeanne. Fabien's reflections convey his aspirations and passions, foreshadowing his growth as he seeks to break free from the confines of his upbringing and find his place in the world of intellectuals.
