La Mythistoire is a short novel inspired by the work of Rabelais, at once a parody of the coming-of-age story and a parody of the sentimental novel. This comical tale, as trivial as it is erudite, Rabelaisian through and through yet still profoundly original, opens a whimsical window onto the ideological debates of humanist France.
