The Dungeons of the Vatican

«The Dungeons of the Vatican» (1914) — the most unusual novel by the great André Gide. A witty, full of mischievous humor story of a gang of intellectual swindlers who devised a truly genius way of «taking money from the population» — raising funds for a crusade to free the unfortunate Pope, allegedly kidnapped by masons and imprisoned in the dungeons of the Vatican.
