I bought History in 10 1/2 Chapters on a whim at the used bookstore and read it this year and it really knocked my socks off... So much so that I apparently couldn't think of anything to say in a review, so I never wrote one. But it was gooooood. And so I bought Flaubert's Parrot as I have already read Mme Bovary and it's on my list of books to re-read. I expect I'll try out the Davis translation at some point in 2011 and then chase it with this one. Looks like you and I are going to discover Barnes in reverse order!
