Poslední třetina výborná, líbil se mi autorův styl, ale antipatii k hlavní hrdince asi nedokážu překousnout.

I liked the style of writing, but very little else. The characters were so unlikeable I found it really hard to get past that - and the only ones I did care about (Berthe and Hippolyte) were hardly expanded upon at all. The club foot operation was the most gripping part of the book, which I think reflects pretty poorly on the book. I just didn't care enough about Emma, I didn't even feel that annoyed by her, she was just dull. My 2nd hand copy of this book had this note in the back "This woman is really annoying. So shallow. She can't really care for anything - seems to want to be unfufilled". I enjoyed the fact that someone was so annoyed by the character that they felt the need to write that note, and I agree with their sentiment, but less passionately. I'd maybe have given it a 2.5/5 on the strength of the writing style alone, if goodreads allowed half stars.

Fiquei bem disappointed but not surprised com a morte dela cpmo punição por ter traído o marido
Eu sei que não foi o ponto que o autor queria trazer, mas tudo o que aconteceu com Emma foi culpa dos costumes da sociedade, do plano que a mulher já nascia fadada a seguir, ser uma boa esposa, uma boa mãe e tal
