Scaramouche | Rafael Sabatini
10 posts | 15 read | 26 to read
A romantic tale of a young aristocrat's adventures during the French Revolution. At one point the hero joins a theater troupe to portray ''Scaramouche''. He also becomes a lawyer, a politician, and a lover, confounding his enemies with his elegant oration and precise swordsmanship. An excellent swashbuckler!

My professor today asked who likes reading and I was one of the few who raised their hands. She gave me this novel and I can't believe myself 😂♥️ This is my favourite professor and I have loved her since the first lecture she ever gave me. Now, I have a book of hers that she gave to me and she will not take it back 😂♥️♥️♥️♥️ I can't believe it 😭♥️

Vansa I LOVE this book. It has one of the best opening lines ever, and is an excellent work about the constantly changing politics of the French Revolution. I love Rafael Sabatini's pirate books ,this one's quite different but just as good. 3y
Vansa What a delightful professor! 3y
Seeking_Serenity @Vansa I can't wait to read it honestly! And she is the best professor I've ever encountered! She genuinely cares for us and listens to what we want to say. She even goes out with us when she feels that we're not feeling well! She is more like a mother than a professor if I'm being honest. 3y

I liked this. Much more progressive than most classics. I feel like I raced through it, and didn't absorb everything so will definitely need to read it again.

#Bookhaul number 2, from City Center Gallery & Books. Most of these are for either the Great American Read or my 100 Essential Novels poster. But some are just because. 😀

Today I went to the theater to see the comedy musical Scaramouche! I loved it, it was funny and relatable to nowadays politics and social situations (at last from where I live). It felt like Les Miss meets The Princess Bride. I'm not sure to what extend the play is inspired by the book. I've read a little about it and although it feels familiar, it's not the same story. However, I loved it! ❤️
