About this title

Synopsis

An introduction to Flaubert that discusses the entire body of his work, beginning by discussing the early novels in sequence, and following by isolating and identifying in them the themes of the novelist's later works. The mature works are then treated at length - not discretely or in chronological order, but as a whole - to create a proper context in which reading can take place.
