Madame Bovary

About This Novel

Madame Emma Bovary, just like Anna Karenina to Russia, Jane Eyre to England, and Hesetta Prynne to America, came out of the writings of Gustave Flaubert and entered the hearts of every French person. This young man was born into a medical family in Rouen, northwest France, and has been interested in literature since he was a child. The years he spent in his father's hospital developed his surgeon-like insight and calm and sharp analytical methods, which had a great influence on his future writing. In high school, Flaubert began literary creation. In 1841, he went to Paris Law School to study. At the age of 22, he dropped out of school because he was suspected of suffering from epilepsy. Since then, he has lived in Rouen in a state of semi-seclusion, concentrating on writing and never married.
