The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

An emotionally stirring story, Victor Hugo'' s The Hunchback of Notre-Dame is rightfully considered to be one of the finest novels ever written. Rejected by fifteenth-century Parisian society, the hideously deformed bell-ringer Quasimodo believes he is safe under the watchful eye of his master, the Archdeacon Claude Frollo. But after Quasimodo saves the beautiful Romani girl Esmeralda from the gallows and brings her to sanctuary in the cathedral, his and Frollo''s mutual desire for her put them increasingly at odds, before compassion and cruelty clash with tragic results. This series of gorgeous pocket-sized paperbacks from Macmilan Collector''s Library celebrates the very best Gothic and horror literature, teeming with monsters, misfits and ghosts.
