"Madame Bovary" is a novel by Gustave Flaubert, published in 1857. It tells
the story of Emma Bovary, a woman who lives beyond her means in order to
escape the boredom of provincial life. The novel was initially criticized for
its obscenity but became a bestseller and is now considered a masterpiece of
literary realism. The plot follows Emma's unhappy marriage to Charles Bovary,
her affairs with the law student Léon Dupuis and the landowner Rodolphe
Boulanger, and her eventual descent into despair and death. The book explores
themes of romanticism, the gap between illusion and reality, and the folly of
aspirations. "Madame Bovary" has been praised for its stylistic perfection and
its influence on the development of psychological realism in literature. It
has been adapted into several films and television series.
