Mon roi mon amour
C'est cet événement historique qui a inspiré à Robert Pagani Mon roi mon amour. Séduit par le sort d'une jeune femme devenue reine d'Espagne dans des circonstances aussi dramatiques que violemment romantiques, il s'est glissé dans la peau de Victoire-Eugénie.
Mélange d'innocence et d'érotisme, ce court roman au style très vif est à la fois lyrique, torride et plein d'humour.

USA (Helen Marx Books)
On 31 May 1906, in Madrid, the crowd is celebrating the mariage of Alphonse XIII with a nineteen-year-old English princess, Victoria Eugenie of Battenberg. As the nuptial procession moves slowly through the town, the horses’ peaceful pace cannot hide that something is lurking at the end of the route, just a step from the royal palace.
It is precisely this event that inspired Mon roi mon amour. Seduced by the fate of a young woman who became queen of Spain in both dramatic and violently romantic circumstances, Robert Pagani slips into the skin of Victoria Eugenie.
A blend of innocence and eroticism, this brief novel is lyric, torrid and full of humour.
Born in Lugano, Switzerland, Robert Pagani has spent his entire career as a conference translator in the UN. He is the author of about twenty plays, some of which have been brought on stage or broadcasted by Radio Suisse Romande. Mon roi mon amour is his first novel.
