Este ebook presenta "Madame Bovary" con un sumario dinámico y detallado. Madame Bovary es una novela escrita por Gustave Flaubert y publicada en 1857. Es la historia de Emma Bovary, una mujer infelizmente casada que trata de escapar mediante relaciones prohibidas con otros hombres. La monotonía y las desilusiones de la vida cotidiana (el subtítulo es "Costumbres provincianas"), el adulterio y el suicidio aparecen como temas de esta novela. Las mujeres todavía no se habían emancipado y se esperaba que obedecieran a sus maridos, que se quedaran en casa mientras ellos iban a trabajar o abandonadas durante meses durante las guerras. Emma Bovary también sirve de voz a Flaubert, quien se declaró identificado con el personaje. Gustave Flaubert (1821 - 1880) fue un escritor francés. Está considerado uno de los mejores novelistas occidentales y es conocido principalmente por su primera novela publicada, Madame Bovary, y por su escrupulosa devoción a su arte y su estilo.

      Glenda Jackson hits the mark in this superb narration of Flaubert's classic novel. Her reading perfectly captures the restlessness of Emma Bovary, a character perpetually dissatisfied with her solid, steady husband and bourgeois life in provincial 19th-century France. Emma's unrealistic dreams (she yearns for a perfect, romantic love that will sweep her away into perpetual bliss) lead her into one affair after another, and then to financial ruin and suicide. Jackson is especially outstanding in the scene which takes place the night before Emma plans to run off with her lover, Rudolf. To Rudolf, Emma is just one in a long series of conquests, and he gets cold feet at the thought of being permanently responsible for her welfare and that of her child. In a swoony, sighing voice full of noble suffering, Jackson reads his flowery letter of tears and regret, saying he loves her too much to ruin her life and her reputation. Then, without missing a beat, she switches to smug, cynical satisfaction, as Rudolf admires the letter and congratulates himself on his close escape.
