'A tale of two cities' (2)

           "She kisses his lips; He kisses hers. Now the Guillotine is waiting. The young girl goes next, before him. The women count Twenty--Two, and Carton walks forward."
            This scene gives me a feeling that Carton isn't a lonely people and he has found a true friend in the end. Because as readers, I believe that everyone will admire Carton's behavior and we are both wish that the story can have a happy ending. Some people think the young woman in the nobel ending is redundant. But this role isn't a redundant character, she is the person that can prove the writer's personality--perfect.
              Another important role is feminine lead's husband Charles. Charles is graceful and noble. He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde. To the opposite of his uncle, Darney was a kind and in dependent young man. Although he knows France is the best dangerous place in the world, in order to his conscience, he leaves his wife and daughter and goes to the France. He is a responsible and disinterested people.
               'A tale of two cities' has its difference with the general historical novel, its character and the main plot are all fictionalizes.
