For the Lit-types - Did Emma Bovary drive anyone else crazy?

Asked by amanderveen (1811points) February 28th, 2009

I first read Madame Bovary in my early 20’s, and I could not stand Emma Bovary. I thought she was stupid, self-centred, thoughtless and… well… an absolutely horrid person. I love the book for the mere fact that it elicited such a strong reaction in me, but was I too hard on Emma?
