Tre racconti - Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880) is a legend, one of the great French writers. He wrote the novel "Madame Bovary," which landed him in court. He was accused of offending morality and religion. He was acquitted by the Sixth Correctional Court of the Seine Tribunal and condemned by puritans for the themes of adultery, criticism of the clergy, and the bourgeoisie. Flaubert is one of the most important representatives of French realism. In the work "Three Tales," written during a difficult period of his life, Flaubert demonstrates his enormous talent as a writer. The three narratives gathered in "Three Tales" were written with such mastery that it's hard to believe Gustave Flaubert was going through a crisis when he created them.
