In the vaulted Gothic towers of Notre-Dame Cathedral lives Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bell ringer. Mocked and shunned for his appearance, he is pitied only by Esmeralda, a beautiful Roma street dancer to whom he becomes completely devoted. Esmeralda, 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 that only Quasimodo can prevent. Victor Hugo's masterpiece brings to life the medieval Paris he loved, and mourns its passing, in one of the greatest historical romances of the nineteenth century.

Victor Hugo (Author) Victor Hugo was born in Besançon, France in 1802. In 1822 he published his first collection of poetry and in the same year, he married his childhood friend, Adèle Foucher. In 1831 he published his most famous youthful novel, Notre-Dame de Paris. A royalist and conservative as a young man, Hugo later became a committed social democrat and was exiled from France as a result of his political activities. In 1862, he wrote his longest and greatest novel, Les Misérables. After his death in 1885, his body lay in state under the Arc de Triomphe before being buried in the Panthéon. Julie Rose (Translator) Julie Rose is an internationally acclaimed translator of Les Misérables by Victor Hugo, for which she was a finalist for the Florence Gould French-American Foundation Translation Prize, as well as The Knight of Maison Rouge by Alexandre Dumas and Phedre by Racine. She is a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters and a recipient of the New South Wales Premier's Translation Prize and the PEN medallion for translation.
