Le capitaine Fracasse | 
pickThis book is properly amazing. All the characters of the "Comedia dell Arte" are reunited in this novel. And the result is ... Hilarious, touching, brilliant! The novel is classified as a 《Roman de cape et d'épée》(literally: novel of cape and sword). And indeed, there is a lot of duels!
I'll be honest, some descriptions are too long, but once you are in the story, you can't stop reading.
