Hiya, we met in the library last Wednesday and discussed Madame Bovary. The conversation is still there, if you wanted to catch up? Venus in Furs is up next. I think on the 3rd of Feb.

Just wondering how people are getting on with our book – Madame Bovary. May More, who has read it, tells me it’s important to choose a good translation.
I’m listening to it on audible which helps it flow – being an older book it is heavier on description that faster-paced modern novels. This book rests on manners and etiquette the same way as a…[Read more]Posy Churchgate started the topic Madame Bovary the book for December 2020 in the forum

Anyway here’s my tip, and it probably only works for those using an e-reader or tablet -…[Read more]

Hi Keptwifey – I am sorry to hear you’ve been having MH struggles.
Yes we discussed this book on Wednesday – we added an extra week to the original date as people needed more time, and then some people thought it was Thursday but the discussion was Wednesday. I think if you go into the Library you can see what was said – only Barefoot and Mrs K…[Read more]
