L'educazione Sentimentale by Gustave Flaubert
Histoire d'un jeune homme
A young provincial aspires to love and social success in Paris, becoming obsessed with a refined married woman and pursuing her through salons, affairs and idle political involvement amid the upheavals of 1848; the novel traces his long-running illusions, missed opportunities and moral compromises as youthful passion and political idealism give way to disillusionment and the quiet banality of bourgeois life.
