A review by paaama
Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert

4.0

Really compelling story with characters that are very reflective of reality. The frustration one feels watching an ill-thought-out life unfold is powerful. In each of these characters is a bit of us, some more than others, and our lives are not so dissimilar today as they were in this setting. Only critique is wordiness and over-description.
