Publishers' Binding Thursday

This week's choice from the stacks is a 1928 edition of French novelist Gustave Flaubert's (1821-1880) Madame Bovary, published in London by John Lane The Bodley Head, Ltd. and in New York by Dodd, Mead and Company. Flaubert's work strives for a sense of realism and of perfection, always seeking "le mot juste"—"the right word." He famously said that "an author in his book must be like God in the universe, present everywhere and visible nowhere."

Madame Bovary was originally serialized in the Revue de Paris in 1856 and as a book in two volumes in 1857. There was an obscenity trial about the contents of the novel, which gained the novel notoriety. This edition features an English translation by British critic and translator J. Lewis May and illustrations by British illustrator John Austen (1886-1948). I believe that Austen did all of the illustrations for the book, including the charming wood-engraved tulip endpapers and the head and tailpieces at the beginning and end of each chapter. It is also likely that he designed the figure on the cover, which also appears on the dust jacket of the book (not pictured).

Love, 1895 by Gustav Klimt Little known piece of Klimt's. Enjoy. [Guillaume Gris]

* * * * *

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Some more art from the artist formerly known as @twisted-brainrot. They decided to do some experiments with characters in Sumo gear, and chose to use a few OCs for Twisted Wonderland for the occasion. Top Left: Lewis Ursine, belonging to my friend GummiCola, and based on Lumpjaw from "Fun and Fancy Free." You'll recall this character from the stories "Too Good to Be True," "Fun and Fancy Feast," and "'This is the Story of Three Bears.'" Top Right: my boi Billy Geant in Sumo gear. I think he looks quite good in it, but he seems more befuddled than anything else. XD

Bottom Center: Billy and Gareth (TB's OC based on Gustave the Giant) wrestling it out. Honestly, they both somehow look so freaking cute there, sort of half-chibi-fied. XD My thanks, as always, to the artist. <3

"Mr Lewis! I was waiting for news, where was Akemi?"

"That's exactly why I came to talk to you about…"

"Oh, Begonia! I see your mother let you come and play with Alex…"

The man's voice began to fade as he saw silent tears streaming down the little girl's face.

"What is happening?"

"Akemi, Begonia and Miss Blizzard found the bear last night… Begonia is the only one that was found."

"So... you are trying to say…"

"Mommy is with father Yuri."
