Coming of age in bourgeois nineteenth century France By Vincent Poirier Unusually for a nineteenth century French novel, we are taken full circle with the book ending where it starts, but with the main character having grown.Monsieur Pierrotin drives a ramshackle stagecoach between Paris and Presle, a nondescript village about twenty miles away from the French capital. Presle is too small for the main post chair service so Pierrotin has a monopoly on a road no one else wants. His cart holds four people comfortably, but he usually squeezes nine passengers and sometimes ten. The passengers include Georges Marais, a handsome charmer who entertains himself by getting the innocent in trouble, and Oscar Husson, an innocent but frustrated youth. Next to them sits a count travelling incognito to check how his steward is managing his estate, and it is the steward who has invited Oscar to spend a few weeks on his master's estate.Despite his mother's warning to avoid gossiping with his fellow passengers, Marais goads Oscar into revealing things about his host, who happens to be the steward the count is going to meet.For once in a nineteenth century novel the coincidence is not outlandish. People unknown to each other but travelling to an obscure destination will likely have some connection to each other without realizing it.The count arrives on his estate, confirms his steward was putting his personal interests ahead of his master's, but would have forgiven him had it not been for Oscar's gossip including revelations about the count's beloved wife.This is Oscar's start in life: the loss of a protector through is own fault. His mother calls upon her former brother-in-law and Oscar's paternal uncle to take the boy under his protection. His uncle finds Oscar a clerkship in a law office. Oscar does very well for two years but on the day he is promoted to Second Clerc, he meets George Marais again, and again gets in trouble, and again finds himself without a situation and without a protector.After a few more adventures, a wiser Oscar ends up where we first met him, in Monsieur Pierrotin's stagecoach. He's on his way to Presle, having repaid his debt of honour to the count, with interest.A standard but interesting coming-of-age novel from Balzac's Comédie Humaine cycle.Vincent Poirier, Montreal
