Leducation Sentimentale (French Edition) [Mass Market Paperback]

Gustave Flaubert (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 2002

L’Éducation sentimentale, histoire d’un jeune homme est un roman écrit par Gustave Flaubert, et publié en 1869.
Le cœur du récit est tiré du roman de Sainte-Beuve : Volupté, qu’Honoré de Balzac avait déjà traité et d’une certaine manière réécrit avec le Lys dans la vallée. Le roman de Flaubert reprend le même sujet selon des règles narratives entièrement neuves, réinventant le roman d'apprentissage pour lui donner une profondeur et une acuité jamais atteinte.

This review is from: L'Éducation Sentimentale (Sentimental Education, French Language Edition) (French Edition) (Kindle Edition)

The kindle edition of L'Education Sentimentale (in french) by Flaubert is just awful. No dots, no commas, lack of paragraphs and part of sentences that make the reading nearly impossible. I'm not complaining about Flaubert's writing, but about the kindle edition I've got.

L'edition Kindle de L'Education Sentimentale de Flaubert en Français est affreuse. Il y a de graves problemes de ponctuation et d'edition. Cela rend la lecture practiquement impossible.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good edition, now that problems have been fixed., August 4, 2011

This review is from: L'Éducation sentimentale (table des matières hyperliée) (French Edition) (Kindle Edition)

A previous reviewer noted that this edition was full of problems. But the new version (March 2011) seems to have fixed most of these. I have not spotted any missing text or punctuation marks, the interactive table of contents works properly, and the formatting is fine. The only problem is that for some reason semi-colons, colons and sometimes full stops are separated with a space from the previous word, which can look a bit odd. (You can see what I mean by using the "look inside" facility on Amazon's site). But this is only a minor niggle - this is basically now a good edition.
