Author: FLAUBERT, GUSTAVE
One of the great French novels of the 19th century
Based on Flaubert’s own youthful passion for an older woman, Sentimental Education was described by its author as “the moral history of the men of my generation.”
It follows the amorous adventures of Frederic Moreau, a law student who, while returning home to Normandy from Paris, notices Mme Arnoux—a slender, dark woman several years older than himself. This marks the beginning of an infatuation that will last a lifetime.
Key Highlights:
- Frederic Moreau’s journey: His life is intertwined with Mme Arnoux, the unattainable love of his life.
- Mme Arnoux: A constant presence, she remains his enduring passion despite being married to an influential businessman.
- Recurring encounters: Their paths cross and re-cross over the years, deepening the complexity of their relationship.
Blending love story, historical authenticity, and satire, Sentimental Education stands as one of the great French novels of the nineteenth century.
