Somewhat difficult to read. E-text prepared by Barbara Tozier, Labyrinths, Bill Tozier, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "The Amours of Zeokinizul, King of the Kofirans" by Crébillon is a fictional narrative likely written in the mid-18th century. This tale unfolds within a fantastical kingdom, the Kofirans, and follows the intriguing life of its titular character, Zeokinizul, as he navigates the treacherous waters of love, power, and political ambition. The book promises a rich tapestry of courtly drama, amorous escapades, and a critical look at monarchy and governance. The opening of the book introduces us to the complex backdrop of the Kofiran kingdom, exploring its history, political structures, and the shifting dynamics of power among its rulers. We learn about the young King Zeokinizul, who inherits a realm plagued by the manipulations of dubious ministers and the burdens of his ancestry. His personal life is set against a backdrop of politicized love affairs, where each romantic engagement bears the weight of potential scandal and societal expectations. The queen, initially devoted yet manipulated by religious fanaticism, inadvertently sows discord, leading to a struggle for Zeokinizul's affection from various women, all while he grapples with his duties as a ruler. This intricate interplay of personal and political tensions effectively sets the stage for the unfolding drama.
