In Chapter 11, Homais and Emma persuade Charles to operate on Hippolyte’s clubfoot, but the treatment causes severe complications, and Canivet amputates the leg. Emma’s brief tenderness toward Charles becomes contempt, while his fear of professional disgrace deepens and she embraces Rodolphe with renewed passion.
Hvad sker der?
- Homais promotes a clubfoot operation, Emma hopes for Charles’s success, and community pressure persuades Hippolyte to consent.
