"Bouvard and Peshchet" is the last novel of the great French writer Gustave Flaubert. This is an ironic tragicomedy about two clerks dissatisfied with life who decide to engage in scientific research in all fields of knowledge. They begin to study philosophy, science, literature, art, but if at first glance it seems that they can become geniuses, in fact, each of their pursuits ends in failure and comic failure. This satirical work reflects a critique of social and intellectual shortcomings, and also shows us how the pursuit of a perfect ideal can turn out to be a futile endeavor."
