Madame Bovary

Unanimously considered one of the best novels of all time, "Madame Bovary" chronicles the dark tragedy of Emma Bovary, an unhappily married woman whose dreams stubbornly and cruelly collide with reality. To the spell exercised by the figure of the protagonist must be added the wise combination in her argument of rebellion, violence, melodrama and sex, "the four great rivers", as Mario Vargas Llosa affirmed in his day, which feed this unique story.
