About “Gargantua et Pantagruel”
The book centers on Panurge, Pantagruel's sidekick and servant, who seeks advice on whether to marry, fearing his wife might beat, rob, or cuckold him despite desiring sons. He consults various "experts," including magicians and lawyers, but refuses to accept any definitive answer, rejecting both the possibility of cuckoldry and the idea that one must choose and risk being wrong.
