Go Back The Black Tulip
By Alexandre Dumas
 | The Black Tulip is an historical fiction novel written by Alexandre Dumas, pere. The story begins with a historical event -- the 1672 lynching of the Dutch Grand Pensionary (roughly equivalent to a modern Prime Minister) Johan de Witt and his brother Cornelis, by a wild mob of their own countrymen -- considered by many as one of the most painful episodes in Dutch history, described by Dumas with a dramatic intensity. The main plot line, involving fictional characters, takes place in the year and a half later; only gradually does the reader understand its connection with the killing of the de Wit. |
