Join Gustave Flaubert, the self-pleasuring French literary giant as he explores the delights and diseases of the mysterious East.
It's a grubby tale of 19th-century sex tourism, habitual masturbation, Realism, writer's block and VD.

Why couldn't Flaubert leave himself alone?
What happened when he visited a bathhouse?
Were the contents of his letters home explicit?
Did he write Madame Bovary?

All this and more will be answered in episode 16 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - the podcast of bad behaviour in period costume.
A well-respected novelist and icon of French literature he was a travel writing superstar whose letters from Egypt paint a vivid if somewhat mucky picture.
Join Flaubert in Egypt as he creates the character of Emma Bovary while sailing down the Nile or exploring ancient temples and 19th century Cairo.
If you like a good travelogue and you don’t mind a bit of furtive self-love among the sand dunes, you'll enjoy this episode.
