Four Musketeers, or a Loofah to the Skull
9 hrs. 15 min.
Description
How many can you parody these unfortunate musketeers? As many as needed! But do we really need to?
We do—at least out of love for the truth. After all, Dumas-the-father, for all his genius, was the greatest trickster. Who else could have cobbled together a noble Count of Monte Cristo out of that murderous cobbler François Piquet—and a knight without fear or reproach out of a lecher and ruffian de Bussy? The exact same song as with the musketeers. Of course, the great writer did all this not out of malice. He simply looked at his heroes through the pink-tinted glasses of romanticism typical of his era. Now the time is different—you can take off those glasses and dance a jig on them. Not out of malice, of course. At least so we can see the musketeers in a new light—in the true light of our time. A novel in 3 books.
Book I. The Queen’s Ribbons.
Book II. The King Without a Head.
Book III. A Game of Dodging Fool.
