The hunchback of Notre-dame
Hugo, Victor (, 1802-1885)
The hunchback of Notre-dame / Victor Hugo - New York : Barnes & Noble Books , c1996 - 416 p. ; 22 cm.
This extraordinary historical novel, set in Medieval Paris under the twin towers of its greatest structure and supreme symbol, the cathedral of Notre-Dame, is the haunting drama of Quasimodo, the hunchback; Esmeralda, the gypsy dancer; and Claude Frollo, the priest tortured by the specter of his own damnation. Shaped by a profound sense of tragic irony, it is a work that gives full play to Victor Hugo's brilliant historical imagination and his remarkable powers of description.
