This historical novel set in the court of Louis XIV offers a glimpse into the political and social atmosphere of seventeenth century France. Because the translation dates back to 1916, you will encounter older vocabulary and formal sentence structures that may challenge your current proficiency. The narrative focuses on court intrigue and the lives of legendary figures. It is a demanding read for those learning Finnish, as the language reflects a more traditional literary style compared to contemporary fiction.

Questions about this book
What level of Finnish do I need for this book?
The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 19 h 48 min at a native pace, spread over 3 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
