Le Bal du comte d'Orgel ("Count d'Orgel's Ball") is a French novel by Raymond Radiguet (1903–1923). The second and last novel by the Parisian author, it was published posthumously in 1924. Set as a love triangle during the Template:Lang, it proved controversial, as did his first psychological novel, Template:Lang, published in 1923. Le Bal du comte d'Orgel was adapted into a 1970 film.
Radiguet drew some inspiration from his own life – far less than in Le Diable au corps – and far more from the moralist literature of the 17th century. In particular, he does not disguise his references to La Princesse de Clèves by Madame de Lafayette.
