Reseña del libro "Bouvard and Pecuchet: A Tragi Comic Novel of Bourgeois Life (en Inglés)"

Bouvard and Pecuchet is a tragicomic novel written by Gustave Flaubert. The story revolves around two middle-aged clerks, Bouvard and Pecuchet, who decide to retire from their jobs and pursue their dream of becoming intellectuals. They decide to educate themselves by reading books on various subjects, including agriculture, history, and philosophy.However, their attempts to apply the knowledge they gain from books to their own lives often end in disaster. They try their hand at farming, but their crops fail miserably. They attempt to write a novel, but their efforts are laughable. They even try to become doctors, but their patients end up worse off than before.As Bouvard and Pecuchet's failures pile up, they become increasingly disillusioned with their quest for knowledge. They begin to realize that the books they have been reading are not a substitute for real-life experience.The novel is a satire of the bourgeois life and the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake. Flaubert uses humor and irony to highlight the absurdity of Bouvard and Pecuchet's attempts to become intellectuals. At the same time, he also shows the dangers of blindly following the ideas of others without questioning them.Overall, Bouvard and Pecuchet is a witty and thought-provoking novel that explores the limits of human knowledge and the importance of experience in shaping our understanding of the world.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1922 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

Gustave Flaubert (Ruan, 12 de diciembre de 1821-Croisset, 8 de mayo de 1880) fue un escritor francés. Considerado uno de los mejores novelistas universales, es conocido principalmente por su novela Madame Bovary, además de por su escrupulosa devoción a su arte y su estilo, cuyo mejor ejemplo fue su interminable búsqueda de le mot juste (‘la palabra exacta’).
