Description
He was the lowest man in the castle — no land, no title, no sword — and the most dangerous. Meet Robin, the medieval court jester: the one man in the kingdom allowed to mock the king.
Follow him from the 3 AM jingle of his bells through a day of tumbling, juggling, and razor-sharp jokes — the mock scepter called the marotte, the license of folly that let him speak truth to power, the great hall feasts where he read the room like a sailor reads the sky. Discover the difference between natural fools and artificial fools, the legends of Will Sommers, Roland the Farter, and Triboulet, the wild upside-down world of the Feast of Fools — and the razor's edge every jester walked, where one joke too many meant the dungeon.
