Summary:
Je vais me marier mais ne fais que pleurer. Ma fiancée a de l’argent mais n’est pas belle ; yeux chassieux, nez gros comme la tour de l’église de Roscoff, narines pleines de tabac, baveuse à faire peur, jambes comme des ribots, oreilles grandes comme des crêpes… Quand vous vous mariez, choisissez d’abord l’amour… moi, je dois aller pleurer !
Themes: Social class difference, wealth, defects ; Lies, implausibilities, improbabilities ; Women
