Améry, Jean2018
Books, Manuscripts
Part fiction, part philosophy, 'Charles Bovary, Country Doctor' is also a book about love. Jean Améry undertakes one of the most unusual projects in twentieth-century literature: a novel-essay devoted to salvaging the poor bungler Charles Bovary from the depredations of his creator, Gustave Flaubert.
