Reviews

Funny yet heartbreaking, the story of Madame Bovary is a timeless classic that I think everyone should read. While it is difficult to not love-to-hate Emma, her flaws and flare for the dramatic have made her one of my favourite protagonists in any novel I have ever read. - Leea, The Book Grocer
