Frederic Moreau is a law student returning home to Normandy from Paris when he first notices Mme Arnoux, a slender, dark woman several years older than himself. It is the beginning of an infatuation that will last a lifetime. He befriends her husband, an influential businessman, and their paths cross and re-cross over the years. Through financial upheaval, political turmoil and countless affairs, Mme Arnoux remains the constant, unattainable love of Moreau''s life. Flaubert described his sweeping story of a young man''s passions, ambitions and amours as ''the moral history of the men of my generation''. Based on his own youthful passion for an older woman, Sentimental Education blends love story, historical authenticity and satire to create one of the greatest French novels of the nineteenth century.
Geoffrey Wall''s fresh revision of Robert Baldick''s original translation is accompanied by a new introduction discussing the personal and historical influences on Flaubert''s writing. This edition also contains a new chronology, further reading and explanatory notes.
