About the Book

The Suicid Club History of the young man with cream tarts Prince Florizel of Bohemia and his Grand Écuyer, Colonel Geraldine, find themselves incognito in a bar when they meet a young man with intriguing behavior. After getting to know him, he introduces them into the Suicide Club, whose members have in common the will to end their lives but are unable to put their gesture into effect. Membership in the club allows each meeting of its members to nominate a "suicide" and "suicide" among them. Scandalized by the existence of such a criminal club, Prince Florizel had him dismantled and charged Colonel Geraldine's brother with the execution of the president of the Suicide Club. History of the Physician and the Saratoga Chest [edit - Change the code] Silas Q. Scuddamore finds himself the victim of a machination: he discovers in his bed the corpse of a young man. Fortunately, his neighbor, Dr. Noël, who turns out to be a man with knowledge in the criminal milieu, offers his help. He encloses the body in a Saratoga chest and provides Silas with an address where he can get rid of it. Silas obeyed, but at the indicated address he found Prince Florizel. The latter explains to Silas that he is in one of the dens of a great criminal (who is none other than the president of the Suicide Club). Silas convinces Prince Florizel of his innocence and at the opening of the chest, Prince Florizel discovers that the corpse is none other than the brother of Colonel Geraldine Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson (13 November 1850 - 3 December 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and travel writer. His most famous works are Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and A Child's Garden of Verses. A literary celebrity during his lifetime, Stevenson now ranks as the 26th most translated author in the world. His works have been admired by many other writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, Bertolt Brecht, Marcel Proust, Arthur Conan Doyle, Henry James, Cesare Pavese, Emilio Salgari, Ernest Hemingway, Rudyard Kipling, Jack London, Vladimir Nabokov, J. M. Barrie, and G. K. Chesterton, who said of him that he "seemed to pick the right word up on the point of his pen, like a man playing spillikins Stevenson was born at 8 Howard Place, Edinburgh, Scotland, on 13 November 1850 to Thomas Stevenson (1818-87), a leading lighthouse engineer, and his wife Margaret Isabella (née Balfour; 1829-97). He was christened Robert Lewis Balfour Stevenson. At about age 18, Stevenson was to change the spelling of "Lewis" to "Louis", and in 1873 he dropped "Balfour"....
