Rejected by fifteenth-century Parisian society, the hideously deformed bell-ringer Quasimodo believes he is safe under the watchful eye of his master, the Archdeacon Claude Frollo. But after Quasimodo saves the beautiful Romani girl Esmeralda from the gallows and brings her to sanctuary in the cathedral, his and Frollo's desire for her puts them increasingly at odds, before compassion and cruelty clash with tragic results. Victor Hugo's emotionally stirring story is rightly considered to be one of the finest novels ever written, and this Macmillan Collector's Library edition, featuring an afterword by John Grant, is the perfect way to experience this unforgettable tale. | The Hunchback Of Notre-dame by Victor Hugo, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
