#fascinating book!

[space-mouse]

listening to the three musketeers. monsieur de tréville fills me with horrified fascination at every turn. this guy spends his life ensuring that the musketeers never face consequences for anything. they are constantly brawling with swords. they've killed people. they almost set a building on fire.

For @speareshakes - the first few pages of the Introduction discuss the 1835 Pratt & Smith case and Dickens' visit to Newgate. :-)
