"Cependant le charme opérait peu à peu ; ta danse me tournoyait dans le cerveau ; je sentais le mystérieux maléfice s'accomplir en moi。 Tout ce qui aurait dû veiller s'endormait dans mon âme ; et comme ceux qui meurent dans la neige， je trouvais du plaisir à laisser venir ce sommeil。 Tout à coup tu te mis à chanter。 Que pouvais-je faire， misérable ？ Ton chant était plus charmant encore que ta danse。 Je voulus fuir。 Impossible。 J'étais cloué， j'étais enraciné dans le sol。 Il me semblait que le ma "Cependant le charme opérait peu à peu ; ta danse me tournoyait dans le cerveau ; je sentais le mystérieux maléfice s'accomplir en moi。 Tout ce qui aurait dû veiller s'endormait dans mon âme ; et comme ceux qui meurent dans la neige， je trouvais du plaisir à laisser venir ce sommeil。 Tout à coup tu te mis à chanter。 Que pouvais-je faire， misérable ？ Ton chant était plus charmant encore que ta danse。 Je voulus fuir。 Impossible。 J'étais cloué， j'étais enraciné dans le sol。 Il me semblait que le marbre de la dalle m’était monté jusqu'aux genoux。 Il fallait rester jusqu'au bout。 Mes pieds étaient de glace， ma tête bouillonnait。 Enfin， tu eus peut-être pitié de moi， tu cessas de chanter， tu disparus。" 。。。more

“When a man understands the art of seeing， he can trace the spirit of an age and the features of a king even in the knocker on a door。” This one took a while to read。 It's very long， but I knew that going in。 I did not expect the first， oh， 375 pages to have so little happening。 The story does take off in the second half of the book。 Until then it's a lovely travelogue of Parisian architecture in 15th-century Paris。 If that's your thing， read this。I don't ever read abridged versions， but I have “When a man understands the art of seeing， he can trace the spirit of an age and the features of a king even in the knocker on a door。” This one took a while to read。 It's very long， but I knew that going in。 I did not expect the first， oh， 375 pages to have so little happening。 The story does take off in the second half of the book。 Until then it's a lovely travelogue of Parisian architecture in 15th-century Paris。 If that's your thing， read this。I don't ever read abridged versions， but I have to admit if there had been one on my shelf， I'd have opted for it during those first few hundred pages。 But the climax of the story is spectacular and made it worth the slog to get there。 。。。more

Novelón que entrelaza los destinos de decenas de personajes complejos y contradictorios， desde los truhanes y las prostitutas de los bajos fondos hasta el mismísimo rey de Francia， todos girando alrededor de la bella pero sombría catedral de París。 "Gracias" a la adaptación de Disney me ha impactado aun más el desarrollo y el desenlace trágico de la novela。 Tiene pasajes verdaderamente perturbadores， sobre todo aquellos protagonizados por Claude Frollo cuando lidia con sus pasiones。 Y momentos é Novelón que entrelaza los destinos de decenas de personajes complejos y contradictorios， desde los truhanes y las prostitutas de los bajos fondos hasta el mismísimo rey de Francia， todos girando alrededor de la bella pero sombría catedral de París。 "Gracias" a la adaptación de Disney me ha impactado aun más el desarrollo y el desenlace trágico de la novela。 Tiene pasajes verdaderamente perturbadores， sobre todo aquellos protagonizados por Claude Frollo cuando lidia con sus pasiones。 Y momentos épicos como el asalto a la iglesia。 Una obra maestra donde Victor Hugo maneja la narración a su antojo， como si llevara una cámara de cine。 。。。more

Somewhere in this book is a good story but WOW were there so many pages of description that bored me so much。 I wanted to give up reading so many times。

I'm not sure if I was more familiar with France and Paris if I would enjoy this more， but much of the author's descriptions of geography and architecture fell very flat to me and took up way too much of the book。 It was also quite hard to keep up with all the passing references to many characters who played little part in the story。 Perhaps overall it means more to the French due to some of this， but as someone not really tied to the culture I don't find it very compelling。As far as the performa I'm not sure if I was more familiar with France and Paris if I would enjoy this more， but much of the author's descriptions of geography and architecture fell very flat to me and took up way too much of the book。 It was also quite hard to keep up with all the passing references to many characters who played little part in the story。 Perhaps overall it means more to the French due to some of this， but as someone not really tied to the culture I don't find it very compelling。As far as the performance of the reader: I finally decided to turn the speed up to 1。25x about 2/3 of the way through and wish I had done it earlier; even sped up， there were only a few times I thought the reader spoke very quickly。 His slow delivery and many pauses didn't help a ponderous story to move along very well。 。。。more

Vou usar a nota coringa: 3，5。Eu não sei bem como avaliar esse livro， na real。 A história é boa， mas Vitinho enrola taaanto que dá até saudades da batalha de Waterloo em Os Miseráveis。Mas o pior pra mim foi o ritmo da narrativa。 Na primeira metade do livro， a história não anda。 Depois， anda rápido demais e quando chega no clímax， ele quebra o ritmo de repente com um capítulo de 30 páginas （que acontece do outro lado da cidade） para explicar um detalhe que poderia ser resumido em 3。Isso quer dizer Vou usar a nota coringa: 3，5。Eu não sei bem como avaliar esse livro， na real。 A história é boa， mas Vitinho enrola taaanto que dá até saudades da batalha de Waterloo em Os Miseráveis。Mas o pior pra mim foi o ritmo da narrativa。 Na primeira metade do livro， a história não anda。 Depois， anda rápido demais e quando chega no clímax， ele quebra o ritmo de repente com um capítulo de 30 páginas （que acontece do outro lado da cidade） para explicar um detalhe que poderia ser resumido em 3。Isso quer dizer que o livro é ruim？ Não， mas se você não tiver paciência com livros descritivos， vai odiar。Não vá esperando uma experiência parecida com LesMis porque os livros são bem diferentes。 Dá pra ver algumas semelhanças， claro， mas O Corcunda de Notre-Dame foi escrito 31 anos antes e dá para ver que o autor evoluiu muito para escrever sua magnum opus。 。。。more

The biggest surprise of my classic gothic romance novel marathon was this。 Cultural sanitisation has hit it harder even than Wuthering Heights。 It's a richly atmospheric black magic horror show with a beautiful fatal ending every adaptation I've seen has wimped out on。 The biggest surprise of my classic gothic romance novel marathon was this。 Cultural sanitisation has hit it harder even than Wuthering Heights。 It's a richly atmospheric black magic horror show with a beautiful fatal ending every adaptation I've seen has wimped out on。 。。。more

Luego de cierto tiempo de lectura pausada， termino al fin la gran novela de Víctor Hugo。 Es trágica， es oscura， está llena de arquitectura y es lo que yo defino como una crítica a la sociedad medieval， a sus dogmas， sus prejuicios y la monarquía de entonces。–Es una oda a las estructuras goticas （Uno de mis capitulos favoritos es de hecho una inmensa pleitesía a París， sus casas， sus callejuelas， sus techos de tejas y sus muros）。 Nuestra señora de París， es un poema arquitectónico， en cierta form Luego de cierto tiempo de lectura pausada， termino al fin la gran novela de Víctor Hugo。 Es trágica， es oscura， está llena de arquitectura y es lo que yo defino como una crítica a la sociedad medieval， a sus dogmas， sus prejuicios y la monarquía de entonces。–Es una oda a las estructuras goticas （Uno de mis capitulos favoritos es de hecho una inmensa pleitesía a París， sus casas， sus callejuelas， sus techos de tejas y sus muros）。 Nuestra señora de París， es un poema arquitectónico， en cierta forma。–De entre sus partes más memorables， destaco el desarrollo de la idea del deseo， de la perdida， de la belleza y sus contraparte （la fealdad） y la oscuridad de una sociedad corrompida， llena de truhanes， polvo y piedra。–Me gusta llamarle: la gran representación de lo que supone la novela romántica。🌟🌟🌟🌟 。。。more

Still a good/great story but encumbered with much else that is either overwrought or lost to time。 Unless you are equally obsessed with late medieval architecture， it’s a real chore to read。

I was about to give this book no more than one or two stars due to Hugo's tendency to go on long， boring and frankly unnecessary ramblings about Paris， random buildings that I don't care about and French state finances from 600 years ago。 But I must say I loved the last 50 pages of the book， which were fully dedicated to the main plot。 This book might have been a lot more interesting and enjoyable to me if it were 300 pages shorter。 But everyone's taste is different。 If you would like to learn m I was about to give this book no more than one or two stars due to Hugo's tendency to go on long， boring and frankly unnecessary ramblings about Paris， random buildings that I don't care about and French state finances from 600 years ago。 But I must say I loved the last 50 pages of the book， which were fully dedicated to the main plot。 This book might have been a lot more interesting and enjoyable to me if it were 300 pages shorter。 But everyone's taste is different。 If you would like to learn more about late-medieval Paris' society and architecture this book is for you。 。。。more

“Iš tikro jaudinantis reginys- globa， kurią viena būtybė， tokia bjauri kaip Kvazimodas， suteikė kitai， tokiai nelaimingai kaip pasmerktoji mirti。 Susidūrė du didžiausi vargšai， gamtos ir visuomenės nuskriaustieji， ir vienas kitam padėjo。”

the elements of tragic irony are beautiful and brilliant in The hunchback of notre dame。 the writing is beautiful in a good few chapters and the descriptions of the setting， architecture and other things are also wonderful - you can clearly see that its a very well researched book。 that being said， most of the characters are only mildly interesting as they lack depth and the book itself flatlines a lot past the halfway mark。 i found myself struggling to finish it simply because i was losing inte the elements of tragic irony are beautiful and brilliant in The hunchback of notre dame。 the writing is beautiful in a good few chapters and the descriptions of the setting， architecture and other things are also wonderful - you can clearly see that its a very well researched book。 that being said， most of the characters are only mildly interesting as they lack depth and the book itself flatlines a lot past the halfway mark。 i found myself struggling to finish it simply because i was losing interest。 its unnecessarily long and overly descriptive in many chapters。 the novel had many enjoyable and unenjoyable aspects and overall， i did enjoy a lot of it but its not something id rush to recommend。 。。。more

i finally did it！ it only took me a year。 it's a beautiful story， but considering how long it took me to read it the first time， its safe to say I won't be rereading it for a long while。 i took one star off because it's pretty boring at some parts because Hugo loves to drone on about architecture， but otherwise， fantastic story。 i finally did it！ it only took me a year。 it's a beautiful story， but considering how long it took me to read it the first time， its safe to say I won't be rereading it for a long while。 i took one star off because it's pretty boring at some parts because Hugo loves to drone on about architecture， but otherwise， fantastic story。 。。。more
