LISTEN TO AN AUDIO SAMPLE OF
'THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME'
SYNOPSIS:
In the vaulted Gothic towers of
Notre-Dame lives Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bellringer. Mocked
and shunned for his appearance, he is pitied only by Esmerelda,
a beautiful gypsy dancer to whom he becomes completely devoted.
Esmerelda, however, has also attracted the attention of the
sinister archdeacon Claude Frollo, and when she rejects his
lecherous approaches, Frollo hatches a plot to destroy her that
only Quasimodo can prevent. Victor Hugo's sensational, evocative
novel brings life to the medieval Paris he loved, and mourns its
passing in one of the greatest historical romances of the
nineteenth century.
