Merivel slips easily into a life of luxury and idleness, enthusiastically enjoying the women and wine of the vibrant Restoration age. But when he's called on to serve the king in an unusual role, he transgresses the one law that he is forbidden to break and is brutally cast out from his newfound paradise.

  • "Le titre original "Restauration" convient bien à ce roman d'époque sous Charles II autour du grand incendie et de la grande peste à Londres en 1666. C'est la restauration de la gaîté après la période austère de Cromwell, celle de la vie après celle de la mort due aux deux catastrophes précitées enfin, c'est la restauration d'un homme, le héros du roman, bouffon du roi et médecin. Personnage attachant qui ressemble à Falstaff et à Don Quichotte."
  • "The very amusing and entertaining story of the highs and lows in the life of Robert Merivel, subject and sometimes favorite of Charles II.; Winner of the Sunday Express Book of the Year Award 1990___"
