Féval, Paul (1817-87). Leading exponent of the roman-feuilleton who, with Les Mystères de Londres (1844), offered an early challenge to Dumas's supremacy. It was, however, during the Second Empire that Féval came to dominate the market in serialized fiction. His most popular and effective novel was Le Bossu, which appeared in Le Siècle in 1857.
