« O rage ! O désespoir ! O vieillesse ennemie ! N’ai-je donc tant tant vécu que pour cette infamie ? »
I think I will remember that quote my whole life! I read this book for my French Literature class. I did like it because the duality between Chimene's love for her father or her love for Roderigue and the parallel with her lover's difficult choicee is very captivating. However I think the fact that we studied it in class made it more a chore than a pleasure...
