A young man’s romantic illusions. The betrayal of youth. The disillusionment of an era.

In L'Éducation sentimentale, Gustave Flaubert presents a masterful and often ironic portrait of a young man’s coming of age amid the social and political turmoil of mid-19th-century France. Frédéric Moreau arrives in Paris full of romantic dreams and ambition, only to be swept into a world of love affairs, political intrigue, artistic circles, and bourgeois hypocrisy during the years leading up to the 1848 Revolution. Through Frédéric’s futile pursuits of love, success, and meaning, Flaubert delivers a sharp, realistic, and deeply psychological critique of human weakness, social climbing, and the gap between romantic ideals and harsh reality.

This original French Edition presents Flaubert’s complete, unabridged text in its native language, showcasing the full precision and ironic brilliance of his style.
