Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert

 
Having read Flaubert's parrot I supposed to ought to read the novel that inspired it.
The book is about Mme. Bovary's thoughts of "If only X would happen, THEN I could be truly happy" and finding out that is simply not the case! I think I need to learn from her mistakes! 
In spite of the sadness of the book, I loved the descriptions of the Normandy countryside which are very vivid!
