| Publisher Description: Hooray "The Classics Slacker Reads" series (Reading the classics so you don't have to) is back with its second volume. This time Classics Slacker readers (Slackies) don't have to read "Madame Bovary" by Gustave Flaubert. This grim French portrait of a sad woman married to a boring doctor often appears near the top of "Greatest Books of All Time" lists. If it's also on your "Books I Should Probably Read Someday" list, now you can cross it right off. "The Classics Slacker Reads Madame Bovary" contains all the leeching, amputating, pig racing, loan sharking, and al fresco adulterating found in Flaubert's original buffet but reduced to a literary amuse-bouche. Lots of fun illustrations, too |
