Ce gros récit écrit entre 1715 et 1735 demeure un modèle du roman picaresque (technique espagnole où le personnage doit traverser divers milieux sociaux) français et fut très fertile en descendants qui lui empruntèrent la manière et la structure. Donc, cascades d'épisodes, rebondissements et retournements, rythme rapide que le ##western## devait reprendre à son compte tant en littérature qu'au cinéma. En somme, un classique alerte et bien portant dans une édition conforme avec chronologie, introduction, glossaire et notes
