I've barely started this but I'm a bit taken aback by the casual misogyny at the heart of the story. The way the waitress is treated, including by Maigret, ought to be a big deal but is treated as if it was perfectly normal. I know I should be focused on the mystery but at the moment I'm distracted by how obnoxious the men in the story are.
