Volume 3: Book 13 - Chapter 11

Characters Present:

Pierre Bezukhov

Karatáev

Location: 

Moscow


Pierre is still a prisoner in the shed, but seems to be allowed to go around in the yard outside.  He has lost weight, but, has maintained a look of manly strength about him.

Pierre has become a favourite with the French, since he speaks French very well, and also, is educated.  

A French soldier who gave some linen to one of the prisoners, Karatáev, to make into a shirt, returns to pick up the shirt.  The Frenchman wants to keep the scraps, but then understands that Karatáev would like to keep them to turn into leg straps, and lets him keep them.
