Cosette

Fantine’s daughter

See the connections around Cosette

Cosette is Fantine’s daughter, first encountered as a small child traveling with her mother. Her formal name is Euphrasie; Cosette is the familiar name Fantine uses. The contrast between a child’s dependence and the decisions adults make around her gives her early story its force. Food, clothing, play and a reliable home are not background details here, but measures of whether care is real.
