Flaubert in Egypt: A Sensibility on Tour (Penguin Classics)
- Penguin Classics
Flaubert's unforgettable memoirs of travels abroad

At once a classic of travel literature and a penetrating portrait of a â€œsensibility on tour,â€ Flaubert in Egypt wonderfully captures the young writerâ€™s impressions during his 1849 voyages. Using diaries, letters, travel notes, and the evidence of Flaubertâ€™s traveling companion, Maxime Du Camp, Francis Steegmuller reconstructs his journey through the bazaars and brothels of Cairo and down the Nile to the Red Sea.
