One of many books kindly given to me by a friend who was having a clear out.

Flaubert's "Madame Bovary" scandalised French bourgeois society of the time with its shocking depiction of an adulteress, Emma Bovary, and her lascivious liaisons. The 19th-century press denounced both the book and its author as corrupting influences. Emma, a bored provincial housewife, abandons her husband Charles to pursue the libertine Rodolphe in a desperate love affair.
