On the scrounge again..

Does anyone have a copy of Madame Bovary they could lend/sell me? I did have one but it seems to have taken itself for a walk and Waterstone's in Chiswick are only selling a new translation for £20 which seems rather a lot.

It is a lot but Amazon Marketplace has second hand copies for 1p + p&p.

I'm sure I have a copy - filed under F for flaubert!In till 1800

And - what a surprise - there it was where it had been filed. Amazing and rare in this household.Maybe cos unread since 1978.

Thanks so much for the loan. £20 saved by the W3 forum..

Clare, do you have the copy from Sarah?  If not, I've just come across this thread and have a spare copy you could have.

Yes she has my vintage American bargain basement copy bought in Caifornia c 1978 (possibly second hand then)
