Welcome back to the dizzying world of the Chevalier de Faublas! Picking up where the first book left off, our young nobleman is deep in his double (and triple) life. To pursue his romantic adventures, he becomes a master of disguise. One minute he's a beautiful woman to sneak into a convent, the next he's a humble servant to gain access to a rival's home. His main goal? To be with the women he loves, especially the married Madame de Lignolle, all while navigating the watchful eyes of Parisian society.
Why You Should Read It
This isn't just a naughty farce. Sure, the disguises and bedroom escapades are wildly entertaining, but Louvet de Couvray is doing something clever. He uses Faublas's chaos to poke fun at the aristocracy's hypocrisy. Everyone is wearing a mask, either literal or social. The real thrill isn't just the romance—it's watching Faublas barely stay one step ahead of disaster. You'll laugh, cringe, and maybe even feel a little sorry for him as his clever schemes start to fray at the edges.
Final Verdict
Perfect for readers who love historical fiction with a big dose of humor and heart. If you enjoy stories about rogues, social satire, or the tension between public reputation and private desire, you'll have a blast with Faublas. It's a vibrant, fast-paced escape into 18th-century France that feels much more alive and relatable than a stuffy history book. Just be prepared for a hero who is equal parts charming and utterly frustrating!
