Translated by Werner Anttila
A historical novel written in the late 19th century. This work explores the political intrigues and scandals surrounding the French court, particularly focusing on the infamous Affair of the Diamond Necklace, which profoundly influenced the events leading up to the French Revolution. The story delves into the lives of characters such as the bewildered aristocracy and the scheming Cagliostro, setting a stage filled with deception, power struggles, and personal relations against the backdrop of the declining French monarchy. The opening of the novel introduces several important characters and establishes a complex network of relationships among the French nobility. It begins with the aged Richelieu marquis preparing for a dinner party, where a gathering of notable guests is expected, including the mysterious Cagliostro, who once went by the name Josef Balsamo. Through rich dialogue and witty exchanges, we learn of the tensions and expectations placed upon the characters, intricately depicting the social dynamics of the time. The scene unfolds around their interactions and hints at secrets and plots that may lead to scandal, thus providing a tantalizing glimpse into the tumultuous world at the precursor of revolutionary upheaval.
