Gemma Bovery #[nn]

This volume collects the complete story of Gemma Bovery, a graphic novel by Posy Simmonds that reimagines Gustave Flaubert's classic novel Madame Bovary in a contemporary English setting.

Published by De Harmonie, this edition presents Simmonds' signature blend of detailed illustrations and satirical social commentary.
