Considered one of the best linguistic works in history, 'Madame Bovary' is a novel that marked the beginning of modern narrative. Gustave Flaubert presents his vision of life in 19th-century French high society through Emma Bovary, an unhappily married woman whose dreams clash with reality. The author breaks with the moral and literary conventions of the bourgeoisie of the time, presenting a fictional heroine who is rebellious and unresigned to her destiny.
Gustave Flaubert was a French novelist. He has been considered the leading exponent of literary realism in his country and abroad. He is known especially for his debut novel Madame Bovary (1857), his Correspondence, and his scrupulous devotion to his style and aesthetics. The celebrated writer Guy de Maupassant was a protégé of Flaubert.
