"What a beautiful thing Notre-Dame is!"--Gustave Flaubert
Set amid the riot, intrigue, and pageantry of medieval Paris, Victor Hugo's masterful tale of heroism and
adventure has been a perennial favorite since its first publication in 1831. It is the story of Quasimodo,
the deformed bell-ringer of the Notre Dame Cathedral, who falls in love with the beautiful gypsy Esmeralda.
When Esmeralda is condemned as a witch by Claude Frollo, the tormented archdeacon who lusts after
her, Quasimodo attempts to save her; but his intentions are misunderstood. Written with a profound sense
of tragic irony, Hugo's powerful historical romance remains one of the most thrilling stories of all time.
