Description
Alexandre Dumas's magnificent epic of imprisonment, patience, and the most elaborately staged revenge in the history of literature—following the wrongfully imprisoned Edmond Dantès from the Château d'If to the extraordinary persona of the Count of Monte Cristo—is one of the supreme pleasures of world literature: a novel of adventure, romance, and justice that has thrilled readers for nearly two centuries without losing a single degree of its narrative power. Presented in this Puffin edition, this is essential reading for every reader ready to surrender to the most satisfying adventure story ever written.
