The Sack (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 19 – Part 11)
from The Countdown of Monte Cristo · host Grunt Work Podcasts
The governor orders Faria’s body to be “decently interred” in a sack — and with no chaplain present, there will be no mass. In The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 19, Dantès listens to crude jokes and indifference as the abbé’s body is prepared for burial that evening. Once the cell is empty and silent, Edmond cautiously lifts the flagstone and emerges from the tunnel. ⸻ New to the journey?
