The reading was nice with a walk in the streets of Paris far from unpleasant. Unfortunately, I had a little more trouble with Fanny as and as advanced pages. If at first we understand his fierce desire to rise, it also ends up annoying us by his stubbornness and especially the fact that it seems not change one iota throughout history. All other characters have also inconsistent behavior I think. Sam, who loved to madness, finally let her go without a word, his stepfather, who also vowed worship him, finally disappeared from his life even though he could make her what she is looking for both and even the good doctor irritates me at the end, first said one thing and then its opposite end. Only Geoffrey, who uses women, was never hypocritical and it is perhaps the one I liked the most in hindsight, which is still very paradoxical.
Although the last sentences were well makes me smile, nothing is resolved and Fanny is still stubborn. And stubbornness is neither strength nor courage ...
