Madame Bovary is one of the greatest, most beguiling novels ever
written. Emma Bovary is an avid reader of sentimental novels;
brought up on a Normandy farm and convent-educated, she longs for
romance. At first, Emma pins her hopes on marriage, but life with
her well-meaning husband in the provinces leaves her bored and
dissatisfied. She seeks escape through extravagant spending sprees
and, eventually, adultery. As Emma pursues her impossible reverie
she seals her own ruin. 'A great novel that is also an
inexhaustible pleasure to read' Guardian A NEW TRANSLATION BY ADAM
