'A masterpiece' Julian Barnes Flaubert's erotically charged and psychologically acute portrayal of a married woman's affair caused a moral outcry on its publication in 1857. Its heroine, Emma Bovary, is stifled by provincial life as the wife of a doctor. An ardent devourer of sentimental novels, she seeks escape in fantasies of high romance, in voracious spending and, eventually, in adultery. But even her affairs bring her disappointment, and when real life continues to fail to live up to her romantic expectations, the consequences are devastating. It was deemed so lifelike that many women claimed they were the model for his heroine; but Flaubert insisted: 'Madame Bovary, c'est moi.
It's a book of its time and you can understand why it caused moral outrage. But the style of writing is very descriptive. The characters don't speak for themselves - the author does it for them. When there is dialogue, the grammatical style is confusing and you can't always be sure whose voice you're reading.
I shall be glad when I've finished it.
