«Madame Bovary» is Gustave Flaubert's realist novel, published by Maxi-Tusquets in paperback (400 pages, in Spanish).
Emma Bovary, educated on romantic readings, marries a modest provincial doctor and soon clashes with the monotony of her new life. Unsatisfied despite motherhood, she seeks in forbidden loves and the accumulation of luxuries the passion she believes she deserves, in a descent that leads her to ruin.
