Les aventures du roi Pausole
by Pierre Louÿs
"Les aventures du roi Pausole" by Pierre Louÿs is a novel first published as a serial in 1900. In the fictional kingdom of Tryphème, King Pausole rules by a simple two-article code: do not harm your neighbor, and otherwise do as you please. When his young daughter Aline secretly leaves the palace after falling for a dancer, the king embarks on a three-day search through his libertine realm. The adventure leads to palace revolts, romantic encounters, and questions about freedom and governance in this fantastical world.
