She also has a brief affair with a young man named Leon Dupuis, who lives with his mother. Emma grows increasingly bored, morbid and depressed in the years that follow, and hardly participates in the upbringing of her daughter, Berthe. Emma is disappointed yet again when, months later, she gives birth to a girl. Determined to fulfill another one of her dreams, Emma tells Charles that she wants a child, specifically a boy. She is greatly disappointed, however, when her expectations of immediate social prominence are not met. While Charles establishes his practice in the town, Emma sets out to decorate her new home just as she had always dreamed. The two are married a short time later and settle into their modest home in the small town of Yonville, in Normandy. Emma, who has spent years living in a convent and fantasizing about love and romance, falls instantly in love with Charles. Flaubert then illustrates his point by telling the court the story of Emma, beginning when she was twenty years old and living a lonely life on her father's farm: One night, a country physician named Charles Bovary arrives at the farm to examine Emma's father, who has an injured leg. In response, Flaubert contends that his story is about forgiveness and that many women like Emma exist in the real world. In 1857, French author Gustave Flaubert is ordered to stand trial to defend accusations that his novel, Madame Bovary, is 'an outrage against public morals and established customs.' During the trial, prosecutors argue that the subject of the book, Emma Bovary, is a 'disgrace to France and an insult to womanhood,' and that the book should be banned for its indecency.
