Description
About the book: "Madame Bovary" is a novel by Gustave Flaubert, first published in 1856. The story revolves around Emma Bovary, a young woman who is discontented with her provincial life and seeks to escape its banalities and emptiness. She lives beyond her means, indulging in romantic fantasies and extramarital affairs to find excitement and fulfillment. The novel was initially attacked for obscenity, leading to a highly publicized trial in 1857. Flaubert was acquitted, and the book went on to become a bestseller. Regarded as a masterpiece of literary realism, "Madame Bovary" remains one of the most influential works in the history of literature.
