Summary
Gustave Flaubert: Madame Bovary
Emma Rouault is the beautiful daughter of a country landowner. She spent her youth and schooling in a monastery where she got an education, but also secretly enjoyed reading romance novels, imagining how her life would be full of fatal and romantic loves. But when she marries the disreputable but kind-hearted country doctor Charles Bovary, she will realize that the gap between her expectations and the boredom of everyday life is too great. The eager adventurer will get involved in several love affairs, but Charles still loves her and tries to do everything to make her happy. But Emma's desire for a lover, beautiful dresses and a good time leads her into more and more debt, and at one point Emma will find herself in front of a wall... Five years of writing, seventy drafts for the plan of the novel, a court case for violating public morals - the path to the creation of one of the most significant novels in world literature was arduous. The theme of the novel is an unhappy marriage and adultery, and at its center is the unforgettable character of Emma Bovary and her struggle against sinking into a devastating ordinariness.
