Flaubert by Geoffrey Wall
In this, the first biography of Flaubert to be written for many years, Geoffrey Wall brilliantly recreates the life and times of a writer of immeasurable talent and influence - a writer who wrote to within an inch of his life and in the process left a body of work that stands comparison with the greatest writers of the age.
'Extraordinarily accomplished.. one of the best biographies of this or any other year.' Sunday Telegraph; 'The clearest, most satisfyingly biographical account of Flaubert to date.' Independent
Geoffrey Wall teaches French at the University of York. He also works as a translator, travel writer and literary biographer. His acclaimed translation of Madame Bovary was published in 1992.
