'She decided she would teach him to speak and he was very soon able to say, 'Pretty boy!', 'Your servant, sir!' and 'Hail Mary!''
Flaubert's most famous short work meditates on the unexamined, futile life of a servant and her beloved parrot.

On its way to a dear BC friend - hope you enjoy this quirky story!
Thank you for this tiny little treasure. I'm looking forward to it. I read Julian Barnes' book a few years back ... Flaubert's Parrot .... everything is a blurr now but I did read it ..... I know that this is the book that inspired him to write it. I did not realise that it was such a short piece of writing. How lovely :)
