bgraham5 's review for:

Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert

5.0

---

I started this novel as research for my costume design MFA thesis, and the descriptions of clothes are gorgeous as expected, but I ended up just reading it for fun because the characters and story were so compelling. This had been on my list for awhile because I have a special place in my heart for banned books, and now I heartily recommend it.
