About This Novel
"Madame Bovary" is the masterpiece of the French critical realist novelist Flaubert. It tells the story of Emma, a peasant girl who received an aristocratic education. Emma despises her husband Bovary, a rural doctor, and dreams of a legendary love. However, her two affairs not only failed to bring her happiness, but also made her an object of exploitation by loan sharks. She had accumulated so much debt that she had no choice but to commit suicide by taking poison. With a seemingly indifferent attitude, Flaubert very "objectively" revealed the causes and consequences that led to this tragedy, and stated the responsibility that society cannot shirk.
