| Summary | "Frau Bovary" by Gustave Flaubert is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The book explores the life of Emma Bovary, a young woman trapped in the banality of provincial life who seeks to escape through Romantic ideals and desires. Her pursuit of passion and luxury leads to a dramatic clash between fantasy and reality. The opening of "Frau Bovary" sets the stage for the introduction of Karl Bovary, a boy who is starting his education at a new school while facing the ridicule of his classmates. The scene vividly portrays the classroom dynamics, focusing on Karl's awkwardness and his struggle to fit in with the other students. The narrative transitions to Karl's family background, noting the shortcomings of his father and the mismatched expectations of his mother. This opening successfully establishes a sense of character development and social critique, hinting at the limitations that will play a significant role in the story's exploration of Emma's subsequent life and choices.
