Gustave Flaubert's "e;Madame Bovary"e; is the classic tale of its title character, Emma Bovary, the wife of a doctor, who has adulterous affairs and lives beyond her means in order to escape the banalities and emptiness of her everyday life. Heralded as a seminal work of Realism, "e;Madame Bovary"e; is considered by many as one of the greatest novels ever written. Attacked for obscenity when it first appeared in Paris in 1856, "e;Madame Bovary"e; was an instant success for the author. His quest for literary perfectionism can be seen in this work, his masterpiece, as his craft for writing is greatly exemplified.
