"Ruy Blas: Drame" by Victor Hugo is a five-act verse drama written in 1838. Set in late seventeenth-century Spain, it tells the story of Ruy Blas, a valet who secretly loves the Queen. His master, a disgraced nobleman seeking revenge against the Queen, forces Ruy Blas to pose as a nobleman and win her heart. As Ruy Blas rises to become Prime Minister and earns the Queen's love, he remains trapped by his true identity and his master's sinister plot. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
