Omtale fra forlaget
A beautiful new clothbound edition of Alexandre Dumas' classic novel of wrongful imprisonment, adventure and revenge. Thrown in prison for a crime he has not committed, Edmond Dantes is confined to the grim fortress of the Chateau d'If. There he learns of a great hoard of treasure hidden on the Isle of Monte Cristo and becomes determined not only to escape but to unearth the treasure and use it to plot the destruction of the three men responsible for his incarceration.
A huge popular success when it was first serialized in the 1840s, Dumas was inspired by a real-life case of wrongful imprisonment when writing his epic tale of suffering and retribution.

"There is neither happiness nor unhappiness in this world; there is only the comparison of one state with another. Only a man who has felt ultimate despair is capable of feeling ultimate bliss. It is necessary to have wished for death in order to know how good it is to live.....the sum of all human wisdom will be contained in these two words: Wait and Hope."
Danglars was one of those men born with a pen behind the ear, and an inkstand in place of a heart.
Believe me, to seek a quarrel with a man is a bad method of pleasing the woman who loves that man.

Se alle bokelskere som følger dette verketI fjor klarte jeg 25 bøker med nød og neppe. Ville prøve 27 bøker i år. Det klarte jeg dessverre ikke med kortere reisevei til jobb, og mindre lydbok. Men jeg er fornøyd med det jeg fikk lest, og håper på et bedre leseår i 2022.
