FAUJAS (MADAME), mother of the preceding. She accompanied the Abbe to
Plassans and took up house with him there. Absolutely devoted to her
son, she made herself his slave, and sacrificed everything and every one
to his interests. It was largely through her that the gradual ousting of
the Mourets from their own home became possible; and to accomplish her
ends she stopped short at nothing; seldom speaking, but always watching,
she was ready to grasp each opportunity as it arose. Retribution came
with the escape of Francois Mouret from the asylum, and Madame Faujas
perished along with the other members of her family in the conflagration
raised by him. La Conquete de Plassans.
FAUJAS (OLYMPE). See Madame Olympe Trouche.
FAUQUENOIX, an associate of Baron Desrumaux in the department of the
mines of Montsou. Germinal.
FAUVELLE, a sugar-refinery at Montsou, which suffered on account of the
strike of miners. Germinal.
FAVIER, a salesman in the silk department of "The Ladies' Paradise."
He had for some reason an ill-will towards Denise Baudu and spread
scandalous stories about her. Henri Deloche, her friend, hearing him do
so on one occasion, threw a glass of wine in his face.
