Madam Bovary

Although the narrative seems to be the tragic life story of a woman and her unrequited loves, Flaubert, in the person of Emma, deals with the depression of the 19th century French woman in daily life, the conflicts she experiences while trying to resist monotony, the contradiction of the institution of marriage to human nature, and the hypocrisy of social value judgments and morality. .

Under the influence of the novels she read, Emma Bovary admired the aristocracy and the big bourgeoisie and created a dream world full of passions for herself. It can be said that Madam Bovary, which depicts the mind of a person trying to overcome his self in a frightening way, is a masterfully drawn psychological portrait.

“Since Madame Bovary, the art of the novel has become equivalent to the art of poetry.”

-Milen Kundera-

“Madame Bovary has a divine courage that both excites and challenges reason.”

-Henry James-

“The best novel ever written.”

-Julian Barnes-
