Overview
Una gran obra sobre la historia de todo un pueblo, donde la gran catedral es protagonista y testigo.
Introducción de Jacques Seebacher, crítico literario -Traducción de Teresa Clavel
Notre-Dame de París cuenta la historia de la gitana Esmeralda, quien en compañía de su cabra Djali toca la pandereta y baila en las calles de París para subsistir, hasta que se la acusa de haber asesinado al capitán Phoebus, su amado, y se la condena a la horca. Sin embargo, el jorobado Quasimodo, campanero de Notre-Dame, quien tras su deformidad esconde un corazón sensible y sediento de amor, luchará para salvar a la gitana.
Recreación del mito de la bella y la bestia y uno de los monumentos de la literatura francesa, Notre-Dame de París es una historia verdaderamente inmortal. En la presente edición, a las memorables palabras de Victor Hugo se le suman las sugerentes ilustraciones de Benjamin Lacombe y la magnífica traducción de Teresa Clavel, que nos traslada las aventuras de Quasimodo y Esmeralda en todo su esplendor.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
More commonly known as The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Victor Hugo's Romantic novel of dark passions and unrequited love
In the vaulted Gothic towers of Notre Dame Cathedral lives Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bellringer. Mocked and shunned for his appearance, he is pitied only by Esmerelda, a beautiful gypsy dancer to whom he becomes completely devoted. Esmerelda, however, has also attracted the attention of the sinister archdeacon Claude Frollo, and when she rejects his lecherous approaches, Frollo hatches a plot to destroy her, which only Quasimodo can prevent. Victor Hugo's sensational, evocative novel brings life to the medieval Paris he loved and mourns its passing in one of the greatest historical romances of the nineteenth century.
