thanks BBWCHATT me to, i can,t find anything at all to do with auphante. don,t even know if its male or female.who ever it is there is a literary character based on her. this is only one of a load all on the same subject!
I read somewhere that Fortunee Auphante was the real-life murderess who was the basis for Emile Zola's Therese Raquin of the same novel. Haven't been able to verify it myself anywhere, though.
