Unique ElementsAuthor BiographyAn Unmissable Literary Classic by Gaston LerouxThe Phantom of the Opera by French author Gaston Leroux is a book of literary fiction first published in 1910. This edition features the English translation by Alexander Teixeira de Mattos, published the following year.A celebrated gothic classic filled with thrilling adventure and dark mystery.Excerpt‘It was the evening on which MM. Debienne and Poligny, the managers of the Opera, were giving a last gala performance to mark their retirement. Suddenly the dressing-room of La Sorelli, one of the principal dancers, was invaded by half-a-dozen young ladies of the ballet, who had come up from the stage after "dancing" Polyeucte. They rushed in amid great confusion, some giving vent to forced and unnatural laughter, others to cries of terror. Sorelli, who wished to be alone for a moment to "run through" the speech which she was to make to the resigning managers, looked around angrily at the mad and tumultuous crowd. It was little Jammes—the girl with the tip-tilted nose, the forget-me-not eyes, the rose-red cheeks and the lily-white neck and shoulders—who gave the explanation in a trembling voice:"It's the ghost!" And she locked the door..’SynopsisThe novel tells the story of a disfigured composer living in the labyrinthine depths of the Paris Opera. After the striking debut of Christine Daaé, she suddenly goes missing, raising fears that the Opera ghost said to haunt the Opera has become a reality. Leroux spins a gripping tale of obsession and violence, in what is an enduring and thrilling literary classic.Title Details◆ Original 1911 text◆ Literary fiction◆ 5 x 8 in◆ Matte Cover◆ White Paper
