Anatole's mother

  • Minor
  • First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 53

She is evoked only as Anatole’s “poor mother,” a phrase that lends her a quiet, tender weight without revealing what she looks like. Her presence is felt through the concern attached to her name, while the page leaves her otherwise unseen.
