The Count of Monte Cristo

About this book

An epic adventure and one of the most enduring fables in Western literature
Edmond Dantés has a life that any man would envy. A promising young sailor about to be made a captain, he has come home to Marseille to marry his beautiful fiancée, Mercédès. But on the eve of his wedding, Dantés is betrayed, accused of treason, and sentenced without trial to life in prison. For the first six years, Dantés can only mourn his stolen future and dwell on the treachery that landed him behind bars. On the verge of suicide, he meets a fellow prisoner who gives him not just an education in revenge, but the means to accomplish it, as well. After an ingenious escape, Dantés recovers a hidden treasure and returns to Marseille as the Count of Monte Cristo, a man whose unlimited resources are matched only by his boundless thirst for vengeance.
An illuminating portrait of early nineteenth-century France and a timeless tale of justice achieved,  The Count of Monte Cristo has inspired numerous adaptations, from comic books and Broadway plays to the hit TV series  Revenge.
