Book Overview
They both styled themselves "Madame," but only the younger of the old ladies had been married. Madame Vali re was still a demoiselle, but as she drew towards sixty it had seemed more convenable to possess a mature label. Certainly Madame D pine had no visible matrimonial advantages over her fellow-lodger at the H tel des Tourterelles, though in the symmetrical cemetery of Montparnasse (Section 22) wreaths of glass beads testified to a copious domesticity in the far past, and a newspaper picture of a chasseur d'Afrique pinned over her bed recalled-though only the uniform was the dead soldier's-the son she had contributed to France's colonial empire.
