"The Red Badge of Courage" by Stephen Crane is a seminal work of American literature that delves into the psychological landscape of a young soldier, Henry Fleming, during the American Civil War. The novel is renowned for its realistic portrayal of the internal conflicts faced by soldiers, particularly the struggle between fear and courage.

Initially, he is consumed by fear and doubt, leading to his desertion during a skirmish. However, as the story progresses, Henry confronts his fears and returns to his regiment, seeking redemption and a sense of belonging. Crane's use of vivid imagery and symbolism, such as the "red badge" representing a wound and a mark of bravery, underscores the theme of personal growth through adversity. The novel's exploration of the human psyche and the moral complexities of war has cemented its status as a classic, offering readers a profound insight into the nature of courage and the human condition.
