Posted by Ashraf B. Fahmi

Commentary:

* The prisoner of Zenda contains many of the traditional elements of romantic novels including mistaken identity letters written in secret , jealousy, thwarted love and chivalry courteous , gallant behavior .
While playing the role of the king,Rassendyll wins princess Flavia's heart .But he can't tell her who he really is ,and his sense of chivalry makes him more uncomfortable with the deceit the longer it continues.

*Fate also plays an important part in the novel criticized at the start of the book for wasting his life, Rassendyll was accused of being an idle person who depends on his father's wealth ,but he found himself in a situation which drives him to risk his life and saved the king.
