Book Description
Noted for his scrupulous devotion to style and aesthetics, Gustave Flaubert was a highly influential figure of nineteenth century literature, widely considered the leading exponent of French literary realism. His debut novel ‘Madame Bovary’ (1857) caused a scandal, as public prosecutors attacked the novel for obscenity. The resulting trial made the story notorious and after Flaubert's acquittal, it became an instant bestseller. Today, it is regarded as a seminal work of literary realism and one of the most influential literary works of the time.
