Charles Bovary is a simp for his second wife. Because he loves and trusts her, she has a series of affairs and ruins him.
Nestled in these pages is a critique of the Romanticism movement, the rationalism movement that came after and the exploitation of the lower classes by the bourgeoisie. There's also a critique of interesting story-telling and women.
This was, by far, one of the most boring books I've read in recent history, and also depressingly misogynistic.
