Have mercy!
I am doing a 15,000 word essay which does not actually require me to read all the book, I have little time and only really need to find out if anything bad happens to her as a result. It is only going to be used as a brief example to support other texts I will go into more detail with. I have been advised by my tutor to reduce the amount of books I used as well and concentrate more on actually getting on with the essay.

She poisons herself with arsenic. To get her buried in consecrated ground, her husband pretends it was an accident and that she thought it was vanilla sugar and this lie is accepted. He cuts off some of her hair while she is in her coffin. He later dies of a "broken heart" and their child is brought up by strangers.
A very sad book; I've heard it described and the first sex and shopping novel but really it's a pretty damning indictment of the social system of the time.
I'd recommend reading it when you have time.

even besides the undeniable fact that she struggles mightily to flee the circumstances that are controlling her existence, Emma Bovary not at all manages to act freely, to be her personal agent. Charles Bovary starts out as a dummy cruel mocked through using his schoolmates and ends as a deeply demanding, feeling human being, who makes a guy lots more beneficial state-of-the-paintings than he's, Rodolphe, look stupid and small. The organization organization that transforms him is love. Emma's therapy of her toddler, Berthe, shows the irritating way in which children as an finished are dealt with in _Madame Bovary_: this coldness incorporates Emma herself and Charles. _Madame Bovary_ shows how mediocrity triumphs in French bourgeois existence. Flaubert is at each and every aspect at pains to evaluation his personal novel with the romantic confections that govern Emma's assistance of the international.

Not punished exactly but I suppose you could call it Karma, if I remember correctly she dies in poverty of some illnes, maybe pneumonia or consumption or something, but I also think she died alone. I may not be totally accurate but you could try reading the last 15 pages to get it. Good luck

She asks strangers to do her homework for her, plagiarises an answer, gets thrown out of school and becomes a performance artist who eats live worms for money.
