The author, Flaubert, took a story of adultery and made it into a book which reflects deep humanity. Bovary is a bored and unhappy middle-class wife who doesn't think much of life. She has romantic and sexual fantasies which leads her to a disastrous love affair. A powerful novel. And a very collectible book in Fine, full leather.
