Más que la historia en general, lo que amé fue la forma de escribir de Flaubert. Las descripciones, los cambios de tiempo, los personajes; en fin, fue magnifico. Además esa tercera parte fue lo que más me agradó del libro. Su calificación sería un 4.5

“For some men, the stronger their desire, the more difficult it is for them to act. They are hampered by mistrust of themselves, daunted by the fear of giving offence; besides, deep feelings of affection are like respectable women; they are afraid of being found out and they go through life with downcast eyes.”
Fredrick falls in love for a woman who is already married, and wastes away his life thinking about her. He doesn't have courage to confess it to her and feels guilty towards her husband. He keeps finding reasons to be around her and is too sensitive towards her and jumps at slightest opportunity of helping her. He would waste his money, would let go off of opportunities to progress in life and would lose friends only to be around her despite knowing that it wasn't fated to go anywhere. He is not unlike Madame Bovary, where you feel frustrated for their emotional folishness and want to go into the world of book and advice them not to waste their lives away for things they can't have.
