About This Novel
This novel describes the process of a petty bourgeois woman's gradual degradation because she is not satisfied with her mediocre life. The protagonist Emma committed adultery in pursuit of a romantic and elegant life. Eventually, she was ruined because she was in debt and could not repay it, and committed suicide by taking poison. What is written here is a love affair that is very common both in life and in literary works, but the author's writing touches on sensitive areas that others have not yet touched. Emma's death is not only a tragedy for herself, but also a tragedy for that era. The author uses a very delicate writing style to describe the process of the protagonist's emotional decline. The author works very hard to find the social roots of this tragedy.

I like reading these classics and never tire of them. They are much better than those junk books.
Delicate writing style
The writing style delicately depicts the various emotional states of the protagonist.
Mrs. Bowery yearns for that kind of life and is dissatisfied with the status quo but unable to change it, so she is irritable and unwilling to accept it. Her husband is content with the status quo and cannot give her a better life. In fact, she should be suffering from depression.
Twist
She was addicted to the spiritual world, yearning for love and Paris, and realized that she was spiritually free and independent, but not financially independent. Talk about freedom
Since God knows that we share our needs, is there any need to beg?
A masterpiece worth reading
The essence of novels is often a reflection of social life. Even the tragic ending of Madame Bovary is also a manifestation of social phenomena to a certain extent. Such an ending also makes people think.
The writing is very delicate and the characters are very vivid. I'll take a closer look next time.

I like books like this, I like strong women very much
When his wife just passed away, it was really unbearable for Charles. But this is also human nature, separated by life and death from his wife. This feeling becomes even stronger when I see other couples getting along lovingly.
