He has the air of a man who knows how to look for what others overlook: a small figure in ordinary civilian clothes, watching with a searching gaze. His unassuming appearance makes his alertness all the more striking.

A minor figure glimpsed amid the turmoil in Moscow, he is identified as a French salesman from one of the city’s shops, dressed in Russian civilian clothes. His searching look marks him out in a moment when ordinary appearances offer little reassurance. The book gives him no further arc or personal history.
Description
He is a small adult man in Russian civilian clothes, with the plain, practical appearance of a shop salesman. His face and coloring are not described, but his searching gaze lends his otherwise unremarkable figure an alert, watchful quality. No particular accessories or other distinguishing features are specified.
