About This Book
This exquisite novel tells the story of one of the most compelling heroines in
modern literature--Emma Bovary. Unhappily married to a devoted, clumsy
provincial doctor, Emma revolts against the ordinariness of her life by pursuing
voluptuous dreams of ecstasy and love. But her sensuous and sentimental desires
lead her only to suffering corruption and downfall. A brilliant psychological
portrait, Madame Bovary searingly depicts the human mind in search of
transcendence. Who is Madame Bovary? Flaubert's answer to this question was
superb: "Madame Bovary, c'est moi." Acclaimed as a masterpiece upon its
publication in 1857, the work catapulted Flaubert to the ranks of the world's
greatest novelists.
