Short biography
Paul Scarron was a popular and influential poet and playwright in his time, but may be best remembered today as the first husband of Françoise d'Aubigné, later Madame de Maintenon and the mistress and secret wife of King Louis XIV. At about age 30, he became disabled by an illness that caused his body and legs to become twisted, although he continued to work.

> Le style de Scarron est vif, incisif, d'une ironie mordante, et le récit des aventures de nos trois larrons est mené tambour battant. "Les hypocrites" n'ont aujourd'hui rien perdu de leur irrésistible drôlerie. Un régal!
Danieljean (Babelio)
