Synopsis "Le Comte de Monte-Cristo: Tome 2 (in French)"

Au Panthéon des marins naufragés, Edmond Dantès occupe sans conteste une place à part. Victime d'une dénonciation calomnieuse alors qu'il allait épouser la belle Mercédès, le malheureux - à l'aube de sa vie - est enfermé pour 14 ans dans un sinistre cachot du château d'If en rade de Marseille. Son salut viendra de l'abbé Faria, un autre prisonnier avec lequel il entretient une amitié clandestine des années durant. Celui-ci lui transmet sa vaste culture et à sa mort, un trésor caché. Dantès fuit alors et ce faisant échappe de peu à la noyade. Il est dit mort et, après s'être assuré le trésor caché dans l'île de Monte-Cristo, il renaît sous une nouvelle identité, celle du comte de Monte-Cristo. Doté d'un immense fortune, d'une puissance sans limite et d'une intelligence supérieure, Monte-Cristo se consacre à sa vengeance, en utilisant notamment toutes sortes de fausses identités et de déguisements. Egalement à l'aise dans la société des bandits italiens ou des contrebandiers corses que dans celle de l'aristocratie parisienne qu'il éblouit, notre héros retrouve les dénonciateurs d'Edmond Dantès, qui ont tous réalisé une progression fulgurante dans la société...

View Author's Page
Alexandre Dumas is one of the most prolific and popular authors from France. He was born in 1802 in the city of Villers-Cotterets, and soon moved to Paris to work as a secretary for the Duke of Orléans. There, he completed his education on his own and began to take an interest in writing.
He started by writing plays, and then moved on to poems and long stories. However, his real success did not come until 1844, the year he released the work that would catapult him to fame: The Three Musketeers. The serial publication of this novel brought him a huge sum of money, but it also meant countless hours of work, many collaborators, and the production of up to eighty installments to meet the growing public demand.
After the publication of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, Dumas amassed a great fortune. However, his hedonistic nature led him to squander all he had earned and he soon found himself forced to exile in Belgium to escape his French creditors.
The Count of Monte Cristo, the pinnacle of the author's narrative, is considered one of the greatest adventure novels of all time.
