One of the most influential novels ever written! Gustave Flaubert is arguably one of the greatest writers of all time. His first novel, Madame Bovary, was published in 1856 and is considered a literary masterpiece by critics and scholars. His skillful turn of phrase combined with scandal on the novel's release (it was considered "obscene") launched the book into notoriety. The story focuses on Emma, a doctor's wife and a tragic heroine who attempts to escape her boring provincial life by having multiple affairs and living beyond her means. Madame Bovary remains a terrific example of Flaubert's determination and his ability to capture the details of modern realism. This chic and affordable edition comes with a heat-burnished cover, foil stamping, luxurious endpapers, and a smaller trim size that's easy to hold.
