In the 1950s, Madame Bovary was banned from the U.S. mail - reread it while you still can (legally). The Ogden Nash book must have been a fun read.
I've read Madame Bovary twice and plan to do so again. The language is so indicative of that era and a true pleasure in light of today's "styles." I did not know it had been banned and fully understand you subtle reference to its legality; these are strange times we live in. As for Nash, suffice to say he was a unique individual; a bit hard to follow at times, but well worth the effort.
Thanks for the comments.
