1. Broken down by volumes of the novel, the figures are as follows : 9 chapters in volume 1 out of a total of 65; 2 out of 98 in volume 2; 37 out of 96 in volume 3; 39 out of 74 in volume 4; 4 out of 15 in the first epilogue; and 12 out of 12 in the second epilogue.
2. Epilogue 1, chapter 6.
3. See, for example, volume 2, part 3, chapter 9; volume 4, part 4, chapter 13. Hereafter I will use a tripartite system of reference (e.g., 3 : 2 : 12 means volume 3, part 2, chapter 12), giving the citations in the text itself and avoiding footnote references.
