Produced by Walter Debeuf "Stello" by Alfred de Vigny is a novel written during the early 19th century. The story revolves around the character Stello, who embodies the conflicting feelings of happiness and despair, grappling with inner turmoil and existential reflections while navigating the complexities of life and love. At the start of "Stello," we are introduced to the titular character who has always enjoyed the favor of fortune, believing that destiny will continually arrange his life in an orderly fashion despite its chaotic nature. However, underlying his confidence is a profound melancholia that he tries to stave off through social interaction, fearing the solitude that brings his inner sadness to the forefront. As the opening progresses, he encounters Docteur-Noir, a doctor of souls rather than merely of the body, who listens to Stello's expression of his deep-seated despair and the manifestations of his afflictions, revealing a dialogue rich with philosophical and poetic musings on life, creativity, and the burdens of being a poet.
