About the Author

Gustave Flaubert, the renowned French novelist (1821-1880), is celebrated for his meticulous craftsmanship and unflinching portrayal of human folly, as translated and introduced by Li Jianwu in elegant Chinese editions. Born in Rouen, Flaubert's early exposure to literature shaped his dedication to realism, evident in his seminal work Madame Bovary, which scandalized 19th-century France with its critique of bourgeois provincial life and romantic illusions. A master of style, he labored over sentences to achieve perfection, influencing generations of writers from Zola to Proust. Despite personal struggles with health and censorship trials, Flaubert's legacy endures through his commitment to artistic integrity, capturing the nuances of desire, disillusionment, and societal constraints in vivid, unflattering detail.
