This is my indulgence! My all-time favourite and definite pick me up if miserable.
Mouche, a discarded dancer, is about to throw herself Into the Seine.
Walking through the fair she passes a puppet booth, and these seven puppets engage her in conversation. They give her advice and she talks aloud to them as if they are real. Of course the actual voice comes from the puppeteer, an evil man who rapes her whilst at the same time talking to her through the puppets. This Dichotomy of good versus evil existing in just the one person is a lesson…
From Rosie's list on historical detectives exploring fact and fiction.
