		<description>Would sexual politics have been better depicted in a different era? How was the character of Fiammetta oblivious of her setting so to speak?

&lt;strong&gt;jb says&lt;/strong&gt;: The character of Fiammetta was the real problem for me. I didn&#039;t feel that I knew who she was, even at the end of the novel. Bucino, the narrator is the only really fully-drawn character in the novel.</description>
