Flaubert managed to create an amazingly universal model of society, which grinds the individual. Or, as stated in the name, educates his feelings. Transfer the types created by Flaubert to Russia of the last decades - and the text will work. Unless the fiacles will have to be replaced with more modern vehicles and a list of dishes.
