At the beginning of the book I thought she was the servent of Anja and Vladek. As I read more I realized that wasn't a maid but it was his second wife. I didn't realize that because they do not get along and by the looks of it she is just interested in his money. ]]> 2017-05-10 03:40:41 UTC https://padlet.com/emeli63/olfmmthbshub/wish/170915734 emeli63 https://padlet.com/emeli63/olfmmthbshub/wish/170915797 Francoise is Art's wife.

Out of a sudden when Art came to visit his father they sort of kidnapped him asking him if he was going to take Vladek with him back to his house.

Art falls and goes crying to Vladek.
