Synopsis:

With an Introduction and Notes by Keith Wren, University of Kent at Canterbury. Translation by James Carroll Beckwirth (1899).

Set in 1482, Victor Hugo’s powerful novel of ‘imagination, caprice and fantasy’ is a meditation on love, fate, architecture and politics, as well as a compelling recreation of the medieval world at the dawn of the modern age.

In a brilliant reworking of the tale of Beauty and the Beast, Hugo creates a host of unforgettable characters – amongst them, Quasimodo, the hunchback of the title, hopelessly in love with the gypsy girl Esmeralda, the satanic priest Claude Frollo, Clopin Trouillefou, king of the beggars, and Louis X1, King of France. Over the entire novel, both literally and symbolically, broods the Cathedral of Notre-Dame.

Vivid characters and memorable set-piece action scenes combine to bring the past to life in this story of love, lust, betrayal, doom and redemption.

About the Author:

Hugo s best-known works are the novels Les Misérables, 1862, and The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, 1831, both of which have had several adaptations for stage and screen.

Paperback. Condition: As New. The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (1993) by Victor Hogo ? Wordsworth Classics Edition Sold by Crappy Old Books Brace yourself for bell towers, burning passions, and more Gothic drama than a vampire convention. In The Hunchback of Notre-Dame , Victor Hogo (or Hugo, if you?re not reading the typo-prone spine) delivers a sweeping tale of love, lust, and looming architecture?all wrapped up in a swirl of 15th-century Parisian gloom. Meet Quasimodo, the world?s most misunderstood bellringer, who just wants to clang in peace. Unfortunately, he?s caught in a love triangle (or is it a pentagon?) involving a dancing girl, a lecherous priest, and an unfortunate abundance of torches and mobs. It?s tragedy. It?s beauty. It?s Hugo at his most extra. This 1993 Wordsworth Classics edition features all the brooding prose and emotional chaos of the original, with none of the footnotes you were hoping for. Perfect for students, masochistic romantics, or anyone who thought Beauty and the Beast needed more public executions. Condition: Some foxing, slight lean, and a smell that can only be described as ?18th-century crypt.? But the words are all still there (we think). Crappy Old Books: Overthinking literature since before it was cool. Near new. Seller Inventory # 3542
