“A piece of perfect storytelling.” —Robert Louis Stevenson
Kurzbeschreibung
Introduction by Lorenzo Carcaterra
A popular bestseller since its publication in 1844, The Count of Monte Cristo is one of the great page-turning thrillers of all time. Set against the tumultuous years of the post-Napoleonic era, Alexandre Dumas’s grand historical romance recounts the swashbuckling adventures of Edmond Dantès, a dashing young sailor falsely accused of treason. The story of his long imprisonment, dramatic escape, and carefully wrought revenge offers up a vision of France that has become immortal. As Robert Louis Stevenson declared, “I do not believe there is another volume extant where you can breathe the same unmingled atmosphere of romance.”

Format:Taschenbuch
The reader is drawn into the world and life (painful and devastating as it is for him) of Edmond Dantes - a poor seaman. The kind seaman happens to be promoted by his benevolent Master, which arouses some jealousness among his colleagues. Also, he is to marry a woman of undiminishing beauty. The two men (one, who wants the woman; the other, who wants the position) unite and plan to rid themselves of the innocent Dantes. It so happens, that they succeed, and he is forced to Chateau D'if.
Through this fast-paced book, the reader observes Dantes who instead of becoming Captain of a poor ship, becomes a Count. He adopts the name Count of Monte Cristo and seeks not the pleasures of life, but revenge. Revenge against those who had gravely betrayed him 13 years before.
And in the end, ... Well, if I told you - there wouldn't be a point to reading the book, would there? You will enjoy this witful book, by the genious of the 19th century, Alexandre Dumas, without a doubt.

Count of Monte Cristo (Wordsworth Classics)
Für einige potentielle Leser mag es interessant sein:
diese Ausgabe ist in SO kleiner Schrift gesetzt,
daß das Lesen mühsam wird!

I haven't ever come across a book that has been this good. Itwas a joy to read. Dumas really outdid himself when he wrote thisone. If you are looking for action, mystery, adventure, romance, revenge, etc. this book has it all.

A classic, make this your next book
One of the best books I have ever read. It's the story of Edmond Dantes, who is imprisoned by his enemies. After a miraculous, but very believable escape, he plots his revenge. Lesen Sie weiter...

A gripping book, truly the best look into a man's conscience
Many would argue against the title I have just given this book. They would say that Crime and Punishment or even such Shakespeare plays such as Hamlet would allow further insight... Lesen Sie weiter...
