What a sad, yet honest, tale. While I dont identify with Emma Bovarys unhappiness with her husband, I absolutely understand her desire to seek out something more in life and to feel fully alive.
In a lot of ways, I despaired along with her when she would think of missed opportunities or things she wished she could do. I sympathize with her longing to see more of the world, to perhaps find something more for herself or a deeper purpose. Given that I have better chances and a different kind of life, I dont feel as trapped as Emma must have felt, and I certainly would have gone about my quests in a different manner, but I do think the root of all that is in me.
