And specifically on this line, well, let's be honest, He's just totally played as an egomaniac in most adaptations, so that's how he end up perceived by most of the fandom.
And well, if we put ourselves in Jean Valjean's shoes,... The poor man must feel like EVERYONE's life revolves around him. He goes to Paris and bam Javert is muted there, the Thenardiers move there as well, there's also Marius there, and Everyone just keeps running into each others all the time.
Oh, the contrived coincidences in 19th century litterature,...
And then after the deadline when we weren't studying them anymore I was suddenly perfectly okay with spending 5 hours per day reading them
As for Javert, he's said to read but not actually enjoying it, and he doesn't seem to have any particular hobbies, but even at work, well... He has other stuff to do than running after Valjean. They really just keep crossing each other's paths constantly, but so are Marius and Thénardier. Main characters in that book just can't stop bumping into each others at every corner.
And yeah, Candide is pretty funny. It doesn't make sense plotwise (omg how many times did Pangloss died already ? Because in my memories he just keeps dying and coming back) but it's just damn funny.
For characters who bump into each others all the time, it's not their fault, France is a small country, there's not space enough for everyone XD
I studied Candide... The thing I remember the more is about red sheeps witch were flying and about the both way to read it... It's not a lot!
Yeah but I like the way the Waterloo part is written. Obviously we're both french so yeah we both saw it in history class and in like, one million movies and series about Napoleon, so we know what happens, but it's still so well written. Though I really appreciated it the SECOND time I read it, because the first time I was way too anxious about the plot XD
France isn't THAT small ! Heck, Paris isn't that small. But yeah it's pretty much necessary for the plot I guess, it's just,... Funny when you think about it.
-.-" If I had saw your profile before, I will have seen that we were both french... Shame on me. Well, it's good for my english exams, I guess...
Je sais que la France n'est pas si petite... enfin, à pied, à vélo ou en voiture? A vélo c'est grand, en voiture c'est raisonnable ^^
