Chapter 43 / XLIII - “The House at Auteuil” reading discussion
Post Body

1) The count seems to be intentionally inflicting distress on Bertuccio; what do you think his motive is for doing so?

2) In this chapter, Dumas has his characters blurt out a whole slew of developments—the death of a daughter, the burial of a child, a murder borne out of vengeance; do these revelations seem consistent with the style of the storytelling so far?

3) Why do you think the count compels Bertuccio to confess his sins? Is it that he’s morbidly curious, as with the execution in Rome? Or that he wants this knowledge to gain leverage over Bertuccio?

Final sentence of chapter:

“Bertuccio remained standing before him.”
