Signifying Nothing

Flauber is extremely descriptive. Like I mentioned in my last post, he describes everything in a situation. What does it all mean though? Chapter 2 of A Simple Soul, The Heroine is really a bunch of stories. They don't have any real meaning behind them. They do, however, help in making the image of Felicite. The way she acts in these situations is key to our understanding of her, which after all is what the book is about.
