Rocambole and The Jack of Hearts Club is the second book in the Rocambole series written by Ponson du Terrail, which began publication in 1858 in La Patrie newspaper as a feuilleton-a serialized novel published daily.In the first part of the series, under the title of The Mysterious Inheritance, Ponson du Terrail introduces many of the characters that go on to become central actors in this drama that begins in Russia during Napoleon's great army's retreat. There, we meet Colonel Armand de Kergaz, Captain Filipone, and Cavalryman Bastien. The saga springs forth from that first event and later the rest of the actors come into the scene.Ponson du Terrail's mastery of the serial novel with elaborate plots, subplots, panoply of characters and continuous cliffhangers are the reason he became the most popular writer of his time-his fame growing into stardom and his readers becoming fervent fans that lined up daily to purchase the newspaper that published his novels.

PONSON DU TERRAIL'S COMPLETE ROCAMBOLE SAGA IN NEW, UNABRIDGED ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS ROCAMBOLE 2 – KNAVES OF HEARTS (Le Club des Valets-de-coeur) A secret society called the Knaves of Hearts Club is behind a crime wave in Paris. At the same time, a mysterious man is working behind the scenes with Rocambole’s help to ensure that all the “happy endings” from the previous series unravel into anger, suspicion and murder. Is there a connection between the two? Punishment in the end will be merciless and gruesome; even Rocambole is left for dead… This volume includes new unabridged English translations of the original French texts: “Le Club des Valets-de-coeur - Tome I” “Le Club des Valets-de-coeur - Tome II” Text translation and layout, artwork, introductory notes, author’s biography , synopses and chronology: © 2023 Roland Radaelli and IP Rights Ltd THE COMPLETE SAGA IN NEW UNABRIDGED ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS The Rocambole Saga The Rocambole adventures were first published in instalments in various French feuilletons, as supplements to newspapers. This was an extremely popular format in 19th Century France as well as in other countries. Novels such as Dumas’ “The Count of Montecristo”, Sue’s “The Mysteries of Paris” and Feval’s “Le Bossu” (“The Hunchback”) were first published in instalments and later reprinted as books. From 1857 to 1870, the year before the author’s death, Ponson du Terrail wrote thousands of pages chronicling Rocambole’s adventures, first as a master criminal, then as a defender of justice. The novels also offer an eye-opening account on how society was structured in 19th century France with stark divisions between nobility, rich businessmen and the working classes. Far from being outdated, these novels feel as fresh today as when they were written over 150 years ago. About the Author Pierre Alexis Ponson du Terrail was born in France in 1829. From 1850 he started writing serials for several newspapers and in 20 years will write over 200 novels! In 1857 he created the character of Rocambole, which will go on to achieve great success all over the world. The word “rocambolesque” is still used nowadays in many languages to describe fantastic, incredible adventures and scheming plots. With Germany’s invasion of France in 1870, Ponson du Terrail joins the resistance but a sudden illness strikes him and he dies in January 1871.

"In this meticulously-researched, in-depth examination of anarchism and modernism, Gurianova provides a new and compelling interpretation of the early Russian avant-garde. Her study has major implications for our understanding of some of the twentieth century’s most important modernists and is an important contribution to the history and theory of radical political thought."— Allan Antliff, author of Anarchist Modernism: Art, Politics, and the First American Avant-Garde. “Gurianova is the first scholar to study the early Russian avant-garde not as a precursor to the Constructivism of the 1920s, but as a distinctive movement in its own right. In this important book, she identifies an “aesthetics of anarchy” that characterized the movement’s politics and poetics—a concept with provocative implications for our understanding of the relationship between word and image. This is a work of original and compelling scholarship that will profoundly alter our understanding of the Russian avant-garde.”— Nancy Perloff, Getty Research Institute (Los Angeles), curator of the exhibit Tango with Cows: Book Art of the Russian Avant-Garde (1910-1917).
