Notre-Dame De Paris (Illustrated)

by Victor Hugo, Amanda Lee (Editor)

Overview

• The book is an edited and illustrated version of the original one and includes 18 or more unique illustrations which are relevant to its content.
• In the vaulted Gothic towers of Notre-Dame lives Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bellringer.

Esmerelda, however, has also attracted the attention of the sinister archdeacon Claude Frollo.

About the Author

"If a writer wrote merely for his time, I would have to break my pen and throw it away," the larger-than-life Victor Hugo once confessed. Indeed, this 19th-century French author's books — from the epic drama Les Misérables to the classic unrequited love story The Hunchback of Notre Dame — have spanned the ages, their themes of morality and redemption as applicable to our times as to his.
