Emma Gets Around

Emma Bovary gets around, if you know what i mean. She cannot be satisfied by just one man, she needs Leon in the Beginning because her husband, Charles is to involved in his work. She is really clingy to him and he decides to move to Paris. While he is gone she tries again with Charles but yet again can not find happiness. Emma and Rodolphe met and hit it off, she was all over him and then that she can try even harder to get back with Charles. She has a horrible relationship kind of girl, she has week relationships, her relationship status is as if she was in middle school, except for the sex. She meets up with them and they fool around and then she leaves and goes to another man. When Emma tries to kill herself, she portrays an image of how much of a shitty person she is. If she wanted to find true love she could have, instead she wanted to have quick relationships and move on.
When Charles finds the letters between Emma and Rodolphe, he stays calm and thinks that as long as she was happy it was ok. Any other person would be mad and burn them and everything else that she owned. Charles is to nice of a guy and doesn't realize anything about her until she is dead. If he wasn't so involved in his work he might have time for his lady.
I think it is funny when she dies, because she starts screaming, and talking about a blind man, she is messed up in the head, then she dies and everyone continues life

Nice to see a post from you (and one filled with such good observations--though do remember to keep your language appropriate as this is a public forum).

I want to read more of your thoughts! be sure to let me know what you think of Barnes' take on Flaubert once we get into that book!
