«Madame Bovary» is the novel by Gustave Flaubert, published by Walter Beckers in hardback (424 pages, in Spanish).
The story follows Emma Bovary, married to a rural doctor, and her attempt to escape everyday boredom through illicit love affairs and the consumption of goods. Flaubert thus paints an ironic portrait of social conventions and of the provincial French bourgeoisie of the nineteenth century.
The work was originally published in 1856. This Spanish edition includes the translation by Consuelo Berges.
For readers of classic fiction interested in nineteenth-century French narrative and social criticism.
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.
