The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The eponymous character, Emma Bovary, lives beyond her means in order to escape the ennui of provincial life.
- When the novel was first serialised in Revue de Paris between 1 October and 15 December 1856, public prosecutors attacked it on the grounds that it was obscene.
- The resulting trial in January 1857 rendered it notorious.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Madame Bovary article was read about 300,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 66 and blocks with 47: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
