Guillaume Thomas, restless and hungry for adventure learns just how much can be gained by lying. At sixteen, he is too young to fight but, borrowing a noble ancestry and a few extra years, he becomes a soldier. In this guise he meets the Princesse de Bormes and her impressionable daughter Henriette. While the princess seeks charity work and Henriette falls in love, Guillaume pursues his fantasy and dies a soldier's death.Cocteau, Jean is the author of 'Thomas The Imposter ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780720612523 and ISBN 0720612527.
