Summary: "The Man with the Black Feather" by Gaston Leroux is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with M. Theophrastus Longuet, a timid and unremarkable rubber stamp manufacturer, who receives a mysterious sandalwood box from the executor of a deceased friend. Inside, he discovers a bundle of manuscripts that set the stage for an extraordinary tale, where he begins to grapple with his own identity and a past life that intertwines with the rich history of Paris. At the start of the novel, Theophrastus and his wife, Marceline, along with their friend Adolphe, visit the Conciergerie, a famous historical prison. It is here that Theophrastus experiences an inexplicable connection to the past, uttering phrases that seem foreign yet familiar to him. Following a strange incident involving a hidden document found in the prison's cellars, Theophrastus becomes entwined with the life of a man from the 18th century, grappling with the reality of reincarnation and the mystery of buried treasures. This sets off a thrilling exploration of his previous identity and the fascinating secrets of the past that link to his present. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
