literature is one perpetual orgy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book is about Mme Bovary, Flaubert and writing fiction. What is fiction, who is an author and why does he write? " 'The race of gladiators is not dead; every artist is one. He amuses the public with his agonies'. The truth is that, by writing about them, 'agonies' are mitigated; literature exorcises them or makes them endurable." (p. 89)
