Book 60 || The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Emmuska Orczy Orczy
The Scarlet Pimpernel, written by Baroness Emmuska Orczy and first published in 1905, is a historical novel set during the French Revolution. The story follows Sir Percy Blakeney, a wealthy English aristocrat who leads a secret double life as the Scarlet Pimpernel, a daring and resourceful hero who rescues French aristocrats from the guillotine. Using clever disguises and elaborate plans, Blakeney outwits the French authorities, particularly his nemesis, Chauvelin. The novel is celebrated for its adventurous plot, its themes of loyalty and honor, and its memorable portrayal of the protagonist as a charming, witty, and heroic figure. The Scarlet Pimpernel is widely regarded as one of the earliest examples of the "hero with a secret identity" trope, predating later popular characters like Zorro and Batman. The novel has inspired numerous adaptations in film, television, and theater, and remains a classic of historical fiction and swashbuckling adventure..
