Madame Bovary

by Gustave Flaubert

Objeto de escándalo en su momento, la novela hubo de sortear la censura del régimen de Napoleón III y sentó las bases del realismo literario. Emma Bovary representa la rebelión contra el encorsetamiento que impone la opresiva sociedad burguesa de la Francia rural decimonónica y su profunda insatisfacción vital. Emma huye de un matrimonio infeliz, pero también de un mundo que no está hecho a su medida, de una época que no es la suya. "Luego sería preciso inventar una historia para explicarle a Bovary lo ocurrido... Pero ¿cuál?" A subject of scandal during its publication, this novel had to overcome the censorship by Napoleon III before it became the pioneer of literary realism. Emma Bovary represents the rebellion against the corset-like, bourgeoise society of nineteenth-century France and the profound dissatisfaction with life. Emma runs from her unhappy marriage, but as well from a world that isn't made how she prefers, and from a period that is not hers.
