897 wordsPossible swords The Scar China Mi&# 233; ville 604 pp, Macmillan There is a certain unlovely pomposity about the use of one-line paragraphs. Look at me, the line says: I am so clever, or atmospheric, that it would be a waste to tack me on to the end of the previous sentence, where I might not get the readers full attention.

The vine is just a vine, not the True Vine, and is indifferently identified with the serpent, who is sick. Cloportes which drag themselves along are not angels to close the gates but woodlice. The verbs are in the indefinite past seem...

2,803 wordsScenes from a provincial life She was a bourgeois narcissist in 19 th-century France who was destroyed by her daydreams. But the brilliantly observed tragedy of Flaubert's Madame Bovary still resonates today Reading Madame Bovary for the first time was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life at least up to that point.
