The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo

ISBN: 9781853260681 PUBLISHER: Wordsworth Editions Ltd FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 480 PUBLICATION DATE: 5.09.1993 DIMENSIONS: 198mmX129mmX24mm 298grams

DESCRIPTION: 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.
