A literary event: one of the most celebrated novels ever written, in a magnificent new translation.
Seven years ago, the incomparable Lydia Davis brought us an award- winning, rapturously reviewed new translation of Marcel Proust's Swann's Way that was hailed as "clear and true to the music of the original" ( Los Angeles Times ) and "a work of creation in its own right" (Claire Messud, Newsday ). Now she turns her gifts to the book that defined the novel as an art form.
When Emma Rouault marries dull, provincial doctor Charles Bovary, her dreams of an elegant and passionate life crumble. She escapes into sentimental novels but finds her fantasies dashed by the tedium of her days. Motherhood proves to be a burden; religion is only a brief distraction. She spends lavishly and embarks on a series of disappointing affairs. Soon heartbroken and crippled by debts, Emma takes drastic action with tragic consequences for her husband and daughter. When published in 1857, Madame Bovary was embraced by bourgeois women who claimed it spoke to the frustrations of their lives. Davis's landmark translation gives new life in English to Flaubert's masterwork.

评分最近我重读了《包法利夫人》,真是好看极了。 我第一次读《包法利夫人》还是高三暑假。作为一个求知欲旺盛的16岁少女,那年夏天我囫囵读了大量名著,满脑子都是浆糊。那些浆糊在我脑子里搅拌,充满荷尔蒙和夏天的气息。其实我并不确切知道阅读的意义,那时候的阅读就像是迅速...
评分我要去看包法利夫人们 所以这两天在看原著 故事讲的是情事 但每一个措辞福楼拜精挑细选 极力让其与爱情无关 他故意用这样的叙述结构: 男人把女人身上诱人的之处列成清单 得出值得出手的结论 根据自己的档次对于搞定这女人有几成把握 来制定战略 分析出她会吃哪套 迅速把自己如...
