Assollant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces the titular character, Captain Corcoran, a bold and adventurous figure, who becomes embroiled in a quest for a sacred Indian text while also showcasing his companion, a tiger named Louison. The book promises a mix of humor, adventure, and exotic settings. The opening of the novel sets the stage at the Académie des sciences in Lyon, where boredom reigns among the members as they listen to a tedious presentation. The atmosphere is abruptly shaken when the Captain Corcoran makes an unexpected entrance, offering his services to find the Gouroukaramtâ, a lost text of significant value, which was bequeathed to the Academy by a deceased member. Corcoran's audacity and charm draw the Academy's curiosity, and his peculiar relationship with Louison, a tiger he treats as a friend, adds an intriguing twist to the narrative. As the story unfolds, Corcoran's humorous and bold nature promises a hilarious adventure filled with unexpected challenges and vibrant characters. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
