I first read this because it is mentioned in Perez-Reverte's "Dumas club", and I read it with the Girl's interpretation in my memory. It's an odd little story. Whatever its significance in the history of French literature or its ostensible moral purpose, it remains a fascinating and enjoyable piece of writing. Alvaro, who is telling the story, conjures up the devil, who promptly falls in love with him. Or does he/she/it? Biondetta, the devil as beautiful woman, seems to be in love. But can you trust the devil? Alvaro won't, until Biondetta's near death changes his mind. However, he clings stubbornly to the idea that he must marry BIondetta, and he must go home and introduce her to his mother first. Biondetta sees no need for either and sets out to seduce him. This creates the simple tension of the plot. The ending is famously unsatisfactory, but oddly enough this doesn't detract from the pleasure of reading, or rereading the story.
