Book Synopsis
Count d''Orgel is handsome, charming, and carefree, a model of cool aristocratic aplomb. His wife, the Countess, is beautiful and pure and loves her husband more than anything in the world. But from the moment the d''Orgels meet and befriend the clever young François de Séryeuse backstage at the circus, all three of these supremely civilized and witty people are caught up in an ever more intricate and seductive dance of deception and self-deception. At Count d''Orgel''s masquerade ball, the real disguises are those of the human heart.

Completed just before Raymond Radiguet''s death at the age of twenty, Count d''Orgel''s Ball is a love story that is as disturbing as it is delicious.
