Erggy,
Try Confederacy Of Dunces, by John Kennedy Toole.
Definitely read Madame Bovary. Flaubert is, in the words of a friend, “tits.”

Confederacy of Fools… that’s the one about some political shit, and Bush.. I remember seeing it at Borders, and confused it with Confederacy of Dunces.
And yet, it doesn’t seem like my “type” of book… a farcical comedy? Hmm… nah.
