The novel "Gargantua and Pantagruel" is the most significant work of the great French writer of the Renaissance Francois Rabelais. The first book of this novel, "The Tale of the Horrifying Life of the Great Gargantua, Pantagruel's Father," was published almost five hundred years ago. Four more books were added to it, and a whole dynasty of glutton-giants, who love life with all its joys, gradually lined up: King Granguzier, his son Gargantua and son of Gargantua Pantagruel. And since then, people have been reading, laughing to tears or thinking about this great novel, and saying the phrases: “Appetite comes with food” or “Everything comes on time if people know how to wait”.
