Answers:
There are so many but Madame Bovary comes to mind.
Madame Bovary is Gustave Flaubert's first published innovative and considered his masterpiece. The story focuses on a doctor's wife, Emma Bovary, who has adulterous affairs and lives beyond her means within order to escape the banalities and emptiness of provincial existence. Though the basic plot is rather simple, even archetypal, the novel's true art lies in its details and underhand patterns. Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madame_Bova…
Mythology and the symbolic meaning of 3 and 4.
Three representing earth, sky and hose down, the three realms that the Olympian Gods each had power over. Even a god such as Poseidon, who ruled the the deep, had the power of creating great storms in the sky as well as cause great earthquakes. Hecate is also associated with the symbolic 3 including 3 crossroads.
Four representing the basic elements of hose down, earth, fire and air as part of impulsive attempts to categorize the known world.

The third son is always lucky.
