Gustave Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert was a French novelist known for his influential work 'Madame Bovary', which is considered a seminal text in literary realism.


"She wanted to get some personal profit out of things, and she rejected as useless all that did not contribute to the immediate desires of her heart, being of a temperament more sentimental than artistic, looking for emotions, not landscapes."
Gustave Flaubert
"Some details escaped her, but the regret remained with her."
Gustave Flaubert
