Quotation of the Day for November 22, 2010"Last summer, out of pleasure and obsession, not for work, I reread the novel in four more English translations,... frequently checking passages in the French text, as best I could, on a Kindle. (The Kindle was later given away, because this exercise in flicking back and forth between pages finally proved to me the vast technological superiority of the printed book over the electronic gadget.)" - Jonathan Raban, reviewing the novel Madame Bovary and its translations.
