Daily Dose
From Charles Bovary, Country Doctor: Portrait of a Simple Man, by Jean Amery, translated by Adrian Nathan West
THE MAN
"The man who writes about Emma Bovary knows nothing of what will happen to him later. He knows only that these things occur, that it is sad, but also suggests a lapse in the person affected."
From The Reality of Gustave Flaubert
