The Priest of Auvrigny: Or How a Christian Avenges Himself, and The King of the Bean (1875) is a novel written by Jean Etienne Roy. The story follows the main character, Father Paul, who is a priest in the village of Auvrigny. Father Paul is a devout Christian who is well-respected by the people in his village. However, his life takes a turn when he is falsely accused of a crime and is forced to flee from the village.While on the run, Father Paul meets a group of outlaws who take him in and teach him the ways of revenge. Father Paul becomes a skilled fighter and eventually returns to Auvrigny to seek revenge on those who wronged him.Alongside the story of Father Paul, the novel also includes the tale of The King of the Bean, a popular French tradition where a bean is hidden in a cake and whoever finds it becomes the king or queen for the day. The two stories are intertwined and provide a commentary on the themes of justice, revenge, and power.Overall, The Priest of Auvrigny: Or How a Christian Avenges Himself, and The King of the Bean is a thrilling historical novel that explores the complexities of morality and justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
