The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

The famous historical novel by Victor Hugo The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. It is thanks to its appearance that we can admire one of the most beautiful Gothic cathedrals in the world – in the very center of Paris. Hugo drew... attention to the cathedral with his work, and he did this intentionally, as Notre-Dame was slated for demolition. The author did not hide that the main character of his novel is the cathedral itself. Under its Gothic arches, a dramatic love story will unfold – one of the most famous and tragic in literary history. Intrigues and unexpected twists, love and jealousy, revenge and treachery, death on the scaffold and demise from the inability to survive the loss of a beloved – against the backdrop of medieval France with its splendor and horrors.
