everything.〉.
Page 187. Inserted right single quotation mark in 〈if you cannot save

Page 292–293. Four signatures 〈BÉBÉ.”〉 or 〈MINETTE.”〉 were originally
printed inset and right-aligned in the last paragraphs of the
relevant letters. Due to the inability of html code to accomplish
that reliably in the epub or mobi editions, these signatures have
been converted to separate paragraphs, with left double quotation
mark added to preserve grammatical punctuation.
Page 337. Removed right double quotation mark after 〈reason of my
sadness.〉.
Page 374. Added right double quotation mark after 〈on the king’s
highways.〉.
