A marriage unravels in the quiet French countryside . . .
Young Emma Bovary dreams of love and riches but her relationship with Charles, a placid country doctor, is far from satisfying. In an attempt to escape the suffocating confines of her daily life, she embarks on a series of passionate love affairs, hoping to find the romantic ideal she always imagined in the arms of new men. It soon becomes clear, however, that Emma is hurtling towards tragedy . . .
A masterpiece of realist literature and a daring portrait of adultery that caused a scandal upon publication, Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary has lost none of its impact today.
Jane Eyre, Lady Chatterley's Lover and Lady Audley's Secret are also available in this Macmillan Collector's Library series of gorgeous paperbacks featuring four of the most scandalous novels ever published.
