Description
Written in 1831 before Hugo was forced to flee from Louis Napoleon's France. In this novel - perhaps his most popular - Hugo paints a vivid portrait of medieval Paris.
Quasimodo, the one-eyed, hunchbacked refugee; Esmeralda, the dancing gypsy girl, threatened by the gallows; and a world where chaos is in charge - Hugo captures them all in this timeless, almost Gothic, piece of literature.
