Critic reviews

“Bawdy romp one minute, a gruesome tragedy the next. The writing is beautiful, witty, grisly and moving” ( Sunday Telegraph)
“If you liked The Other Boleyn Girl then this book is certainly one to adore” ( Female First)
“Teulé effortlessly paints a vivid and detailed picture of life in 17th century France” ( Edinburgh Evening News)
“This wonderful romp through the ballrooms and bedrooms of Louis XIV’s Paris is a real treat” (Bella)
“Satisfyingly excessive and bawdy” ( History Today)

I loved everything about this experience (that's what this is - an experience). The story is a wild Candide-esque tale that twists and turns the entire time. The narration is exceptional and feels like listening to a full cast of people.

Excellent Narration of a Candide-esque Tale
