Initial comments

• I feel that the lead could be expanded slightly in order to summarise the article better per WP:LEAD. A couple of sentences regarding her life or writing career would be fine

• Done. Freikorp (talk) 13:46, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• "and the general had hired" - should General be capitalised here? I'm not sure myself

• I don't think so. See General officer. Freikorp (talk) 13:18, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• "Eventually Nathalie took their children" - comma between "eventually" and "Nathalie"

  Done. Freikorp (talk) 13:18, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• "telling her that her half-brother Augustin joined the French Foreign Legion" - link French Foreign Legion

  Done. Freikorp (talk) 13:18, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• "who had taken out a newspaper ad seeking a pen pal" - informal, try advertisement

  Done. Freikorp (talk) 13:18, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• Just a suggestion, you could split some of the "Life in North Africa" section into a "Later life" or "Later life and death" section

  Split into three sections. Freikorp (talk) 13:18, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• It might be worth splitting the Publications list into two columns

• Done. Freikorp (talk) 13:20, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

• No dead links

On hold

This is a very well written article and I couldn't find anything major to bring up. Once all of the above are clarified, this should be good to go. Well done on the work here, this was an interesting read. JAGUAR  12:47, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

@Jaguar: Thanks for your review, hopefully i've addressed everything adequately. :) Freikorp (talk) 13:46, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

Thanks Freikorp! This one is good to go now. I'll have the final review to you tomorrow. JAGUAR  22:13, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
