Description
This English-language edition presents the epic tale of wrongful imprisonment, adventure and revenge in a definitive translation. Imprisoned for a crime he did not commit, Edmond Dantès is confined to the grim fortress of If, where he learns of a great treasure hidden on the island of Monte Cristo. Determined to escape, he plans to use the treasure to destroy the three men responsible for his incarceration. Inspired by a real-life case of wrongful imprisonment, Dumas’s tale of suffering and retribution was a huge popular success when it was first serialized in the 1840s. Translated with an introduction by Robin Buss.
