Notre Dame De Paris
About This Novel
The novel "Notre Dame de Paris" artistically reproduces the true history of the reign of French King Louis XI more than 400 years ago, how the palace and the church colluded to oppress the people, and how the people fought heroically against the two forces. The rebel gypsy girl Esmeralda and the ugly disabled person Quasimodo in the novel are presented to readers as the embodiment of true beauty, while what people see in the archdeacon Frollo and the noble soldier Phoebus are cruel, empty hearts and sinful lusts. The author organically connects evocative stories with vivid and rich dramatic scenes, making this novel highly readable. The novel has a strong romantic color and uses contrasting writing techniques. It is an artistic example of applying the contrast principle of romanticism.

I once remembered that there was this sentence on the back of the book: My bleakness comes from ugliness, and your misfortune comes from beauty. The ugly bell ringer protects the Gypsy girl with his hot heart, but the Gypsy girl cannot resist the radiant and handsome man.
