The Queen's Necklace is a novel by Alexandre Dumas that was published in 1849 and 1850. It is loosely based on The Diamond Necklace Affair, an episode involving fraud and royal scandal that made headlines at the court of Louis XVI in the 1780s.
The author exposes himself without restraint, without shame in every aspect and the fragility of his being - the scenes with the mother are shocking. It bares itself to the core without any exhibition, making this autofiction a true revelation.
The plot is set in Blitva, a fictional country in northeastern Europe, which after centuries of foreign rule and political instability became an independent state under the dictatorial rule of the cruel Lieutenant Barutanski.
