The Benefits And Privileges Of Cuckolds (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781019558614)

A satirical masterpiece of 17th century French literature, The Benefits and Privileges of Cuckolds lampoons the hypocrisy and absurdity of social mores of the time. Le Noble's protagonist, a cuckolded husband, discovers that his status comes with certain perks that offer him unexpected advantages and pleasures. With bawdy humor and sharp wit, Le Noble challenges the prevailing moral norms of his era and invites readers to question their own assumptions about fidelity and desire. This edition includes a new introduction and annotations by a leading scholar of French literature.
