ALEXANDRE DUMAS - THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO
I haven’t cut my hair in a while. L’s suggestion that it makes me look like a character from Dumas was among my reasons for reading this book. The count’s fall from grace I found more engrossing than the revenge he wreaks. Maybe a question of pacing. Unrelated note: I’d never known Dumas was Black. I was delighted to find this out. And disappointed with my teachers. Read, May 2019.
