Before I begin discussing what I have read this week, id like to express my personal opinion regarding Emma and what she has been up to throughout the novel. I believe that even though one must respect her for aspiring greatness and luxury, it is way more than what Charles can proportion, and cannot simply ignore her husband and mistreat her child because she is unhappy. Neither can be blamed for her fantasies with a fancy and exciting life, and even though she doesn’t realize it now, her comfortable situation is much better than what it would have been if she stayed in church, with her father or any other man who hadn’t become as successful and economically providing as Charles has.
As far as Leon goes, Emma would do the same thing she did with Charles with him – the beginning of the relationship could have been wonderful and exciting, but it would all evolve into the boring routine most couples inevitably end up in, and as we can see, Leon wouldn’t be able to cope with a routine either, considering he left for Paris on the grounds of Yonville being too boring.
Even though I’m still enjoying the book, the story seemed to have stopped at one point and became very boring, with detailed descriptions and repetition – which made it quite difficult for me to read for a long time without becoming distracted. But as I went on the plot did regain strength and now I am actually looking forward to find out when Emma will lose it.
