Notre-Dame de Paris - Tome 2

by Victor Hugo

Illustrated by François Flameng

"Notre-Dame de Paris - Tome 2" by Victor Hugo is a French Gothic novel published in 1831. Set in 15th-century Paris, it tells the tragic story of Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer of Notre-Dame Cathedral, the beautiful Romani dancer Esmeralda, and the tormented Archdeacon Claude Frollo. Their lives intertwine in a tale of obsession, unrequited love, and jealousy against the backdrop of the magnificent cathedral. A masterpiece of Romanticism, the novel championed the preservation of Gothic architecture while creating an enduring classic of French literature.
