The elusive 18th century French monarch, Louis XV, offers a Gothic-sentimental glimpse into his life and mind. Journey into the turbulent life of the introverted and second longest-ruling French king, after his great-grandfather and predecessor Louis XIV. From his return to Versailles as a twelve-year-old in 1722, to marriage at fifteen, fatherhood, and mounting psychological and amorous strife amidst rising political and religious pressures, Louis XV reveals his own conflicted artistic-literary perspective.
