A Tale of Two Cities Ch15 Knitting

Dickens (1859) The Mender of Roads describes to DeFarge, Jacques one, two, and three what he witnessed happen to Gespard, the man who killed the Marquis for running over his child. Gespard spent some months in hiding after killing the Marquis, but he was found by the French government, tortured and hanged. The Mender of Roads is taken to Versailles by the DeFarge's and he cheers and marvels at the royal court. The DeFarges hope to fuel his focus of hatred and violence in the future by exposing him to the opulence and decadence of the court, while violence and hunger escalate in France. Meanwhile, Madame DeFarge registers in her knitting the names of the Evremonde family (Monseigneur's family) who should be put to death. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/karla3507/message
