About this ebook
Madame Bovary follows the life of Emma Bovary, a young woman trapped in a provincial marriage, who longs for romance, luxury, and excitement. Disillusioned by her dull existence, Emma seeks fulfillment through a series of love affairs and extravagant purchases, leading to devastating consequences. Flaubert's masterpiece is a powerful critique of bourgeois society, exploring themes of desire, materialism, and the human tendency to chase unattainable dreams.
