Book Six

​

Chapter One: The Beginning of Repose

 

Ambubajae seems to be a name given to a society of itinerant Greek flute-players.

 

René Laennec was a French physician and inventor of the stethoscope.

 

Notable quote:

     "Carve as we will the mysterious block of which our life is made, the black vein of destiny constantly reappears in it."

 

Definitions that elude me:

  • Vestal: a chaste woman, especially a nun

 

Chapter Two: How Jean may become Champ

 

Jean Valjean is 54 right now.

 

Definitions that elude me:

  • Docket: a calendar or list of cases for trial or people having cases pending

  • Rancor: bitterness or resentfulness, especially when long-standing

​

​

That wasn't too bad now, was it? Now it's time to ask yourself: is Javert a good person?
