The Scarlet Pimpernel
So far in The Scarlet Pimpernel, many aristocrats are being executed in France. A man named Bibot is trying to keep them in France but a man under the secret identity of "The Scarlet Pimpernel" is trying to help them escape. I am king of having a hard reading this book because it has a lot of dialog, probably because it was originally written as a play. Aside from that, the book is quite good and is very exciting.

This is during the French Revolution, right? The early 1800's?
ReplyDeleteIt's in the 1790s, actually, but your close enough.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on the difficulty of reading a play. Even the sixty pages of "The Cherry Orchard" was near torture (I only got to 40-ish).
