About “Capitaine Fracasse”

The book is set in Gascony during the reign of Louis XIII and centers on a noble estate, described as a manor with two round towers and a feudal appearance, located between Dax and Mont-de-Marsan. The narrative unfolds in a rural landscape marked by overgrown paths, moss-covered grounds, and a sense of abandonment, with the estate's former grandeur now diminished by time and nature.
