The Book Stripped Bare is going to mid nineteenth century France for December 2010.
The scandalous Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert. I am open to suggestions at which translation. Perhaps if we just choose whatever one we want we can have a more varied discussion.
I quote from the back of my Penguin Popular Classics edition "Emma Bovary has become one of the greatest, and least conventional, heroines of fiction". Bring it on I say.
Date TBC- most likely around the middle weekend of December, so get reading.
Can we post canape requests here too?
