Zu detailreiche Beschreibungen und im Vergleich zu wenig Handlung. Ich liebe Klassiker und hatte daher Erwartungen, aber habe nach schon kurzer Zeit das Buch aus der Hand gelegt. (Kommt sehr selten/nie vor, glaube das sagt genug aus...)
Ausverkauft, aber heiß begehrt!

This historically significant novel of love and betrayal led to a renewed interest in preserving the grand architecture of Paris. Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame was written in 1831, at a time when the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris was falling into disrepair. This epic novel helped spark a preservationist movement that led to the cathedral being restored to its full glory. Set in 1482, the story tells of how four men—the hunchbacked bell-ringer, Quasimodo; the archdeacon of Notre Dame, Claude Frollo; the dashing soldier Phoebus de Chateaupers; and the poet Pierre Gringoire—vie for the love of Esmeralda, a young Romani woman. As the story unfolds, readers come to realize that the focus of the story is not only on the human characters but on the grand cathedral itself.
