Chapter 8 di 35 · Part 1 · 14 min per leggere il capitolo
In Chapter 8, Emma and Charles visit Vaubyessard, where luxurious meals, elegant guests, and a waltz with the Viscount draw Emma toward aristocratic life. Back in Tostes, she dismisses Nastasie, hides a cigar case found on the road, and repeatedly recalls the ball even as its details fade.
Cosa succede
- The Marquis and Marchioness welcome the Bovarys, and Emma admires the château, its guests, and the elaborate dinner.
- Emma discourages Charles from dancing, joins the ball, and watches the wealthy guests with fascination.
- Peasants at a window briefly recall her farm upbringing, but the ball overwhelms that memory.
- The Viscount guides Emma through a dizzying waltz, and she stays awake afterward to prolong her pleasure.
- The Bovarys return home after Charles finds a cigar case; Emma dismisses Nastasie and hides the case.
- Emma stores her ball clothes and counts the passing weeks, retaining her longing as particular memories fade.
