(French Language Edition) --- Please see any and all photos connected with this listing. A bit scuffed but all pages intact and legible. Good reading copy. No store stamps. --- --- (French Language Edition) --- Novel in which a woman defies the standards of conventional French society. --- Flaubert's portrait of an adulteress who seeks freedom from a prosaic, disappointing life and ultimately is destroyed by her selfishness was considered scandalous when it was published. Flaubert chose his subject to illustrate his belief that any aspect of life, however trivial or vulgar, could be a subject for literature, and could be raised to the status of art by the quality of the writing. . .See photos for additional content. . .
