The Whole Heart Into the Abyss

A literary notebook inspired by Madame Bovary.

Gustave Flaubert

Madame Bovary (1856)

Collection:

Emma does not want love as it is lived, but as it is imagined, absolute, consuming, capable of remaking the world around her. What she pursues is not a relationship, but a feeling without limit. In the end, nothing can sustain that intensity. It gives way completely.

Printed and bound in the United Kingdom.

Select interior:

“Love, she thought, must come suddenly,
with great outbursts and lightnings—
a hurricane of the skies,
which falls upon life, revolutionises it,
roots up the will like a leaf, and sweeps
the whole heart into the abyss.”

Gustave Flaubert

Madame Bovary (1856)
