My dear Miss Kacey,

  Marie Antoinette, alluded to only obliquely, is scarcely to be considered
a character in my book "A Tale of Two Cities," I would have thought.
  Evidently you have been given an assignment to write on the book.  I ought
not to write your assignment for you, I feel.  But let me suggest some pairs
of characters you might consider comparing.  Carton and Darnay, needless to
say; Miss Pross and Madame Defarge; Carton and Stryver; even Mr Lorry and Dr
Manette.

Faithfully yours,


Charles Dickens
