Penguin Books, Limited (UK). Very Good. 4.37 x 0.51 x 7.13 inches. Paperback. 1995. 352 pages. <br>Emma Bovary is beautiful and bored, trapped in her marriage to a mediocre doctor and stifled by the banality of pro vincial life. An ardent reader of sentimental novels, she longs f or passion and seeks escape in fantasies of high romance, in vora cious spending and, eventually, in adultery. But even her affairs bring her disappointment and the consequences are devastating. F laubert's erotically charged and psychologically acute portrayal of Emma Bovary caused a moral outcry on its publication in 1857. It was deemed so lifelike that many women claimed they were the m odel for his heroine; but Flaubert insisted: 'Madame Bovary, c'es t moi'. ., Penguin Books, Limited (UK), 1995, 3, Abacus.
