Description: MADAME BOVARY - Gustave Flaubert (1979 Leather Bound, Easton Press) **NEW** First published in 1856. Madame Bovary is the debut novel of French writer Gustave Flaubert. The character lives beyond her means in order to escape the banalities and emptiness of provincial life. When the novel was first serialized in La Revue de Paris between 1 October 1856 and 15 December 1856, public prosecutors attacked the novel for obscenity. The resulting trial in January 1857 made the story notorious. After Flaubert's acquittal on 7 February 1857, Madame Bovary became a bestseller in April 1857 when it was published in two volumes. A seminal work of literary realism, the novel is now considered Flaubert's masterpiece, and one of the most influential literary works in history. This masterpiece is presented here in classic Easton Press style, factory sealed in plastic wrap, leather bound, gilt edged, finely illustrated and printed on acid-neutral paper with a ribbon marker.
