I think it took me an entire summer to finish it, but it was definitely worth it.<br /><br />I agree with the Madame Bovary comparison, but I thought Anna seemed less self-serving than Emma. Anna also had to sacrifice and suffer a lot more before the end.Shannon Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17375300716238391523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637440206562155541.post-86497418969616995262011-03-13T15:36:36.859+00:002011-03-13T15:36:36.859+00:00Mflick1 - it's now one of my favourites too. ...Mflick1 - it's now one of my favourites too.

I keep thinking the next logical step is War and Peace... I'm not quite that brave yet, though!<br />Also, Sam, how's the wedding planning?:-)anarmchairbytheseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14593618746095559894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637440206562155541.post-58962126441729374082011-03-13T06:33:10.580+00:002011-03-13T06:33:10.580+00:00I've been looking for a copy of this book, but...I've been looking for a copy of this book, but haven't had any luck in that department. Your post made me want to read it even more.<br /><br />Btw, have you read Madame Bovary? A lot of bloggers have compared Anna to Madame Bovary, and I want to know if they really are alike. :)Darlyn (Your Move, Dickens)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00979296421309409564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637440206562155541.post-11970555745618820802011-03-13T00:57:01.510+00:002011-03-13T00:57:01.510+00:00I am always tempted to grab this book whenever I g...I am always tempted to grab this book whenever I go to the bookstore.
