We Must Save Molière

Content : What joy for Pierre! He has just been hired by the great Molière! But one evening, Molière receives an anonymous letter: if he dares to perform The Imaginary Invalid, the consequences will be terrible.

To unmask the blackmailer, Pierre finds a valuable ally in Mado — Molière’s own daughter. She suspects everyone who has ever been mocked in her father’s plays (and there are many of them).

A perilous investigation begins, filled with rivalry and deception at the court of Versailles!

Based on a true story! Nathalie Somers draws on many real details from Molière’s life — the existence of his daughter Mado, the rumours that Corneille may have written Tartuffe, his rivalry with Lully… a skilful blend of fiction and biography!
