Madame Bovary (Oxford World's Classics)
"Madame Bovaryis available in a superb new translation, in a handsome hardback volume,and if you've never read it, or if you've only worked through it in first-year college French, you need to sit down with this book as soon as possible.  This is one of the summits of prose art, and not to know such a masterpiece is to live a diminished life."--Michael Dirda,Washington Post Book World
