Publisher Description

From the shadows of the great tower, a misshapen man tolls the bells. Amid the haunting recesses of the magnificent cathedral, he peers down upon the city, the Paris where he can never belong. And yet he longs to be among them, longs for the beautiful gypsy dancer whose kindness toward him pierced his heart. The story of a man abandoned by God, only kept alive by the faintest hope of romance, is played against the tragic backdrop of revolution.

The St. Charles Players present a unique telling of this classic tale, in a new multi-cast dramatization performed in exciting Radio Theatre style.

"I had heard of the story many times before I read it. The novel exceeded all my expectations. Another book that made me cry. I refuse to see the Disney adaptation, which somehow spawned a sequel, even though most of the main characters die in the book."

    " Couldn't get past the 50+ pages of the description of the cathedral. (Maybe I'm exaggerating, but not by much.) "

    " Stvarno postoji vreme za svaku knjigu. Samo knjiga u pravo vreme procitana moze da ti pomogne da sagledas i sebe i svet. Izgleda da sam ovu procitala kad treba. "

    " I read this years ago, and I'm still in love with it. This is quite possibly one of the saddest and most romantic books I've ever read. "

    " Great book although Victor Hugo kind of went crazy on this one and spend tens of pages describing every little tiny detail of Paris and church and nature etc. etc. so if you skip that part the story is very well written. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " The parts on the history and architecture of Paris are interesting, but Hugo's tendency toward extremely thin plot and his evident belief that literature consists of making endless lists (of adjectives, people, places, whatever) made this a rather boring read. Give me Alexandre Dumas pere anytime. "

    " Hard to get through the beginning, Victor Hugo likes to describe EVERYTHING, but once you get into it, it's one of the best books I've read. "

    " I think that victor hugo have a great imagination. the story had created and it about love,lust,doom, betrayal and redemption. the events of story return to 1436. The master and servant fall in love with gipsy. "
