[2347] Marguerite

HISTORICAL FICTION

Previous critique; 2349.

This is a short historical fiction piece that takes place in German-occupied France in 1944, and tells the story of an American OSS agent on an assassination mission in Paris and his relationship with a French woman named Marguerite.

I am interested in any and all feedback. Of note, there is a lot of French dialogue, and I am not a French speaker--although thanks to Google Translate I can pretend to be one. It is not necessary to understand the French to read and understand the story, but I have run the French past someone who is, so the dialogue should be right, but if you are a fluent French speaker and have comments, I'd be glad to hear them.
