Montoya takes a paternal
interest in the gifted young bullfighter Pedro Romero and seeks to protect him from the corrupting
influences of tourists and fame.
Frances Clyne - Cohn's girlfriend at the beginning of the novel. A manipulative status-seeker, Frances was
highly domineering early in their relationship and persuaded Cohn to move to Paris. As her looks begin to
fade, she becomes increasingly possessive and jealous.
Count Mippipopolous - A wealthy Greek count and a veteran of seven wars and four revolutions. Count
Mippipopolous becomes infatuated with Brett, but, unlike most of Brett's lovers, he does not subject her to
jealous, controlling behavior. Amid the careless, amoral pleasure-seeking crowd that constitutes Jake's
social circle, the count stands out as a stable, sane person. Like Pedro Romero, he serves as a foil for Jake
and his friends.
