Harlequin masquerades

Pierrot wants to find the very pretty Colombine. Harlequin joins him and for fun, he decides to do everything to get ahead of his friend by seducing her first. All opportunities and encounters will be opportunities to delay Pierrot: without wanting to, his accomplices will be Doctor Cassandre, General Matamore, Scaramouche, King Pantalon and even Death... But isn't the real heroine ultimately Colombine? A journey that begins in Venice and will take the reader to meet all the emblematic characters of Commedia Dell'Arte. Like a play, the story has different scenes in which our two friends will have to be clever to escape. They will even face Death and there, Colombine will save them with laughter. Colombine is here a female character of today who will not let herself be influenced by the beautiful words of Arlequin or will throw herself without thinking into the arms of Pierrot.
