Madame Bovary is the story of a beautiful young woman who marries a luckless country doctor. She tries to escape the narrow confines of her life through a series of passionate affairs, hoping to find in other men the romantic ideal she always dreamed about. Flaubert's daring description of adultery and sinfulness caused a national scandal when it was first published, and this masterpiece of realist literature has lost none of its impact today.
Translated by Eleanor Marx-Aveling.

Autorenporträt
reits sein erstes gedrucktes Werk, Madame Bovary, rief ebensoviel Hass wie Bewunderung hervor und sicherte ihm einen Ehrenplatz in der ewigen Bibliothek der Weltliteratur. Flaubert forderte zeitlebens die Lesegewohnheiten seines Publikums heraus und lehrte es, sich von der Vorliebe für das Gewöhnliche frei zu machen. Diese Art der literarischen Umerziehung begeistert auch heutige Leser durch ihre kompromisslose Originalität.
