That said, I do hold Sentimental Education higher than Madame Bovary, but Bovary is the one most people are familiar with.

Do give the new translation a try, Dan.

Perhaps I should reread Sentimental Education one of these days.

I’m a big fan of Bouvard & Pecuchet, though I haven’t seen the new translation, but when you’re talking about Flaubert’s masterpieces, is it wise to leave out the Sentimental Education? To my mind (and in the minds of many others), it’s the best of all of them . . .
