Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize for Fiction Flaubert's Parrot
deals with Flaubert, parrots, bears and railways; with our sense of
the past and our sense of abroad; with France and England, life and
art, sex and death, George Sand and Louise Colet, aesthetics and
redcurrant jam; and with its enigmatic narrator, a retired English
doctor, whose life and secrets are slowly revealed. A compelling
weave of fiction and imaginatively ordered fact, Flaubert's Parrot
is by turns moving and entertaining, witty and scholarly, and a
tour de force of seductive originality.
