Publisher's summary

Cortesãs, nobres, artistas, padres e médicos, decadentes ou influentes, ninguém era poupado pela verve satírica de Molière, dramaturgo que Rubem Fonseca transforma em personagem neste romance. Autor de comédias clássicas como Escola de mulheres, Tartufo, D. Juan e O avarento, Molière morreu em 1673, logo após uma apresentação de O doente imaginário, sua última peça. A partir desse acontecimento real, Rubem Fonseca cria um personagem fictício, o marquês que escreve anonimamente O doente Molière.

Amigo do grande autor e ele mesmo dramaturgo frustrado, o marquês utiliza seu conhecimento da corte do rei Luís XIV e dos salões da França do século XVII - em que convivia com Racine, Corneille, La Rochefoucauld e La Fontaine - para investigar a causa verdadeira da morte de Molière. Enquanto acompanhamos sua investigação, sua pena afiada descreve as intrigas, as traições e os crimes que serviram de inspiração para o grande autor e que seriam a causa de sua morte.

amazing performance! (portuguese from Brazil)

Rubem Fonseca is one of my favorites writers and I think O Doente Molière was the only one I had not yet read. I'm glad because Cecil Thiré's narration is impeccable and really transports us to the court of Louis XIV.
