Bouvard and Pecuchet by Gustave Flaubert
Includes Flaubert's Dictionary of received ideas.
"Novelists should thank Flaubert the way poets thank spring; it all begins again with him" —James Wood
"Why should we read Bouvard and Pécuchet? They are we, and we are they." —Rick Prelinger, SF MOMA
Known for his scrupulous devotion to his art and perfectionist style, French writer Gustave Flaubert is counted among the greatest Western novelists, and influenced such writers as Franz Kafka and J. M. Coetzee. Flaubert is best known for Madame Bovary, for which he was prosecuted (and acquitted) for offending public morals. His other works of note include Memoirs of a Madman, November, Salammb?, Sentimental Education, and The Temptation of Saint Anthony. His work has been widely adapted for the stage and screen. Flaubert died in 1880. Mark Polizzotti is the translator of more than thirty books from the French. His articles and reviews have appeared in The Wall Street Journal and The Nation. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
