GRAND ART 12

"That bitch will kill me" and Saint-Simon will make us die laughing ...!
These are excerpts of the famous memoirs of insufferable little Duke are a real treat!
The guns are out, but in the Grand Siècle style: it's beautifully written (sometimes with a little difficult turns of phrases, but you eventually get used to) while being terribly effective.
The rise and fall in the gold and gutters of Versailles ... Many dead on arrival, a real carnage ...
Ruthless but so gratifying: when slander is adorned with all virtues ... (literary, of course ...)
