Aug 7, 2021 at 22:03 | comment | added | KitKatKit | @Hugh Thank you, that gives the passage more context. what edition are you reading? I have about 60 pages of rambling about British history between this line and the passage you cite. | |
Aug 7, 2021 at 21:14 | comment | added | Hugh | Victor Hugo opens the next Chapter with the following (a face which banishes boredom): "La nature avait été prodigue de ses bienfaits envers Gwynplaine. Elle lui avait donné une bouche s'ouvrant jusqu'aux oreilles, des oreilles se repliant jusque sur les yeux, un nez informe fait pour l'oscillation des lunettes de grimacier, et un visage qu'on ne pouvait regarder sans rire. Nous venons de le dire, la nature avait comblé Gwynplaine de ses dons. Mais était−ce la nature?" | |
