When Emma Rouault marries Charles Bovary she imagines she will pass into the life of luxury and passion that she reads about in sentimental novels and women's magazines. But Charles is a dull country doctor, and provincial life is very different from the romantic excitement for which she yearns. In her quest to realize her dreams she takes a lover, and begins a devastating spiral into deceit and despair. Flaubert's novel scandalized its readers when it was first published in 1857, and it remains unsurpassed in its unveiling of character and society. Includes unique illustrations

Flaubert wrote to his mistress, Louise Colet: "An author in his book must be like God in the universe, present everywhere and visible nowhere." In his books, Flaubert sought to observe that principle; but in his many impassioned letters he allowed his feelings to overflow, revealing himself in all of his human complexity.

Esta es la obra del frances que mejor describe sus sentimientos. La pasion entre el protagonista, Frederic, y madame Arnoux es el equivalente en la ficcion a lo que el sentia por Elisa Foucault en la realidad. La redaccion de La educacion sentimental ocupo una buena parte de su vida literaria, por lo que se puede considerar una especie de "diario amoroso" del escritor"
