HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.

‘…for her, life was as cold as an attic with a window looking to the north, and ennui, like a spider, was silently spinning its shadowy web in every cranny of her heart.’

Married to Charles, a provincial doctor, Emma Bovary yearns for a more glamorous life. Disenchanted with her husband and seeking an escape from their dull marriage she is soon tempted into a brief romantic liaison with another man. Although short-lived, she remains desirous of passion and the finer things in life and embarks on another affair, destroying her reputation.

Considered scandalous at the time, Emma Bovary’s superficial and immoral behaviour shocked readers and caused moral outcry. Flaubert holds up to ridicule not only Madame Bovary herself, but the society that dares to judge her.

• Highly collectible, these must-have classics should feature in every family's home library.

• Striking and recognisable black and white cover designs, achieving stand-out on the bookshelves against the competition.

Features include:

• A glossary of Classic Literature: Words and Phrases, adapted from the Collins English Dictionary.

• A Life & Times section, detailing information about the author, their work and the time of publication.

• A History of Collins, exploring the heritage and established reputation of Collins as a publisher of Classic fiction.
