Madame Bovary
She Wanted More. The World Said No. She Said Watch Me.
I devoured life hungrily. It devoured me back.
You think me tragic? I think you all cowards. Charles gave me a gilded cage; I smashed it with lovers, debts, and delirium. Walter Scott lied—romance doesn't bloom in bonnets and bills. I tasted heaven through stolen hours and paid in arsenic. Let them judge. I'd do it all again.
What I'm Into: Victor Hugo's poetry, illicit love letters, Yonville's suffocating gossip, arsenic vials, dreaming in rose petals
