Emma Bovary, a dreamy, idealistic woman married to the dull provincial doctor Charles, yearns for the passion and luxury she’s read about in novels. After affairs with Léon and Rodolphe fail to fulfill her fantasies, her compulsive spending leads to crushing debt, and in despair, she decides to take her own life by poisoning.
