Book review

[Gotteskind]

This is all so good ! I'm glad I've found your channel. Victor Hugo brought me here .Thank you .💯🌬️🇧🇷

[mikhailglobus]

This was rather useful. I am making an informed decision to postpone reading of the novel in favor of another classic but knowing the depth of what is eventually coming is comforting. Thank you!

[akahajar]

I read a version where there's no ''essay'' kind of chapters. I feel like i was scammed 😭😭

Hi sir, can you give me the critique of the main character?

The Hunchback is one of my favorite books of all time. 1) I don’t think Notre Dame should be rebuilt. It should be shored up as it is and left as a monument; 2) about 2 years ago I read in NY times a letter was found whereby this lady wrote that she had gone to the funeral of the rector of Notre Dame and that he was a hunchback, but beloved by all Paris. The funeral was overflowing with attendees in honor of the rector and his outstanding generosity. The point of this was Hugo was a frequent visitor to Notre Dame and the funeral was just prior to when Hugo wrote the novel. There was a long-standing Q of where Victor Hugo got the idea of a hunchback. Problem solved.

I never read the book. I’ve only seen the Disney movie from the 1990s. It’s my favorite Disney movie tied with Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Is it worth a read?

Moby Dick is comparable regarding these nonfiction digressions.

[Welther]

Sounds just like Moby-dick. With large sections of non-storytelling. But skim over it, and if you read it a second time it'll be more interesting. I think this is done on purpose; it's more content for an audience that doesn't own tv's or smartphones. Modern books are written much faster paced and it's in style to be as minimalistic as possible.
