1.2.3 Flaubert

The first three chapters of this book are so funky. I don't really understand how it is called novel. With novels you need characters, plot, setting and more. The first two chapters in here don't really give us this. The chronology is strange, it doesn't really fit into a novel. The writing in this book is interesting and i'm glad the third chapter is actually getting into novel form. So far this book seems pretty interesting with the different styles of writing and I can't wait to see how he continues on in the book. This book doesn't seem like a novel and so I hope it becomes more of one soon.
