description: His acceptance of all the realities of life, principally recommends what many regard as a more mature work than Madame Bovary. In this story, of a young man's romantic attachment to an older woman, the modern English listener can appreciate the accuracy, the artistry and the insight which Flaubert reconstructed in one masterpiece, the very fibre of his times.
